Sad News
Joshua Giggey, 23, of Davie, FL, was the man behind the scenes of this site, writing all the stories/reviews/predictions/rankings. He passed away September 15, 2007. He is survived by his wife Adriana, parents Bill and Debbie Giggey of
Delray Beach, brother Jason, sisters Sasha and Amanda and God-daughter
Makayla. Please keep his wife and family in your thoughts and prayers during this impossible time.
I'm sure it would be Josh's wish to keep this site going in some way or
another, but for now we will leave the site as it is with the Forums
still going strong. If you wish to leave condolences please use the

Rest in peace, Josh!

#2- Glades Central High School
The Raiders are the biggest name in 561 football, and they are once again near the top of the rankings to start the season. Last season ended with the school bringing home state championship #6. Will 2007 bring them #7?

#3- William T. Dwyer High School
The Panthers looked on the verge of pulling off a major upset in the 2nd round of playoffs last year against Booker T. Washington. The tide in that game quickly turned though as Booker T answered Dwyer's first 21 points but scoring the final 38 in the game. That game left a bad taste in the mouth's of Dwyer, and they will be looking to take it out on 561 opponents all season long.

And The #4 Team is......Atlantic High School
The Eagles from Atlantic High School are one of the most talked about teams on the message boards of 561sports. Will they live up to the hype this year or have another disapointing finish?

And Now We Enter The Top 5......#5 Palm Beach Gardens Gators
The Gators from Palm Beach Gardens are one of the most consistant and succesful programs in all of Palm Beach County. Don't expect the tradition to fall off this season as they return plenty of talent and the same recipe for winning.

#6- Clewston High School
The Tigers from Clewiston ended last year suffering one of the most heartbreaking defeats any team in the county has ever suffered. Will that give them the modivation they need in 2007?

And the #7 Team Is.......Palm Beach Lakes High School
The Rams of Palm Beach Lakes were one of the best teams in Florida to not make the postseason last year as they went 7-3 with all 3 losses comming to quality opponents in very close ball games. PBL will be playing one of the toughest schedules in the state and will have their work cut out for them if they want back into the playoffs.

Coming In At #8....West Boca Raton High School
The Bulls from West Boca had a dream season last year, making it all the way to the 3rd round of the playoffs. To repeat that performance this season, they are going to need a monumental effort from a certain player.
