David Watts, Barron Collier: The win that was heard around the state. Watts led his Cougars to arguably their best victory of the season to date, beating a previous one-loss Providence School 79-72. Huge victory for Barron Collier heading into districts. 

Renaldo Garcia, Berkeley Prep: It was quite the week for Garcia and his Buccaneers. The Berkeley Prep bench boss guided his team to victories over Tampa Prep and defeated host Bartow at the Mosaic Stinger Shootout this past weekend.
