Florida high school football is back and so begins our Player of the Week polls for areas all around the state. Teams showcased what they’ve got in Week 9 of the regular season.
As such, we have 19 athletes nominated this week for the SBLive’s Tampa Bay Football Player of the Week award from October 14-19, and we ask you, the fans, to help decide who should indeed be the top athlete selected.
Congratulations to last week's winner: Eddie Mamudi, Blake
Mamudi was on point in the team's 55-0 victory over King, with the signal caller completing 9-of-11 passes for 250 yards and five touchdowns.
