The Trophy Shop Athlete of the Week – Trevor Holtzendorf (Union County)

The Trophy Shop Athlete of the Week for the week of August 26 is TREVOR HOLTZENDORF* of the Union County (Lake Butler) football team.

*The sophomore played a big role in Union County’s come-from-behind 15-12 win at Williston. Holtzendorf recorded 14 tackles, two sacks, and one forced fumble. Union County (2-0) didn’t allow a score in the second half.

Previous 2019-20 winners:

August 19 – Quan Smith (Buchholz football)
Smith helped lead the Bobcats to a 21-20 win against Eastside by rushing for 190 yards. The junior had 108 yards in the first half. However, it was his late fourth quarter 46-yard run, right after Eastside’s TD but blocked extra point, that helped seal the win. Smith had a 44-yard TD run in the first half and had Buchholz’s only score of the second half on a 40-yard pass from quarterback Jack Hevesy.

Columbia (Lake City) continues atop regional poll after close road win

GAINESVILLE — With Hurricane Dorian wreaking havoc on most of the state of Florida, many high school football teams saw their games canceled or postponed for the second week of the season.

Even more games have already been called off for this week all over The Prep Zone Power Poll coverage area.

But for the second straight week, there is a unanimous #1 team, and it is the Columbia (Lake City) Tigers.

Columbia had to fight to win on the road against #16 Oakleaf (Orange Park), with the Tigers holding off a late two-point converstion attempt by the Knights for a 21-19 win. Columbia, which beat #5 Trinity Christian (Jacksonville), 38-7, in its opening game, improves to 2-0 and receives all nine first-place votes again this week.

Vanguard (Ocala) remains 2nd.

The Knights (2-0) rolled past then-RV Buchholz (Gainesville), 42-12, for the second win in as many weeks for Vanguard at Citizen’s Field. Vanguard was scheduled to travel to #14 Sandalwood (Jacksonville) this week, but that game has been canceled due to Duval County Public Schools being closed for Dorian.

Mandarin remains 3rd.

The defending 8A state champs improved to 2-0 with a 32-13 win at RV Ribault (Jacksonville). The Mustangs scheduled game at home against #9 DeLand this week has also been cancelled due to the hurricane.

North Marion (Citra) stays at #4.

The Colts (2-0) rolled past Palatka, 53-7, at home in week 2. North Marion’s scheduled game against Gainesville this week has been moved to September 20th.

Rounding out the top five is Trinity Christian.

The Conquerors (1-1) were on the road for the second straight week, and this time pulled out a thriller, 45-42, at Godby (Tallahassee) in overtime to even up their record. Trinity Christian was scheduled to host Ribault (Jacksonville) this Friday, but that game has also been canceled and a makeup time is not yet known.

Bartram Trail (St. Johns) moves up a spot to 6th after travelling to South Georgia for a 24-7 win at Brunswick. The Bears, who knocked off #13 Robert E. Lee (Jacksonville), 48-20, in their opening game, will host rival RV Creekside (St. Johns) this Saturday night in St. Johns County.

Madison County drops two slots to 7th despite a 55-0 romp at Jefferson County (Monticello). The Cowboys (2-0) hit the road again this Thursday to take on 5A Rickards (Tallahassee).

Raines (Jacksonville) moves up one spot to 8th despite having their game at Pahokee canceled in week 2. The Vikings (0-1) dropped their opener the week before to Jones (Orlando).

Despite a bye, DeLand (2-0) moves into the top 10 as the Bulldogs are ranked 9th.

Rounding out the top 10 is Mainland (Daytona Beach).

The Bucs (0-1) moved up a spot despite having a bye a week ago, and dropping their opening week game, 21-18, at DeLand. Mainland’s game against Treasure Coast (Port St. Lucie) is called off this week due to Dorian.

New to the rankings this week are Flagler Palm Coast at #17, South Sumter (Bushnell) at No. 18, and St. Augustine at #20. All three teams are off to 2-0 starts, with South Sumter blasting then-#8 Nature Coast Tech (Brooksville), 33-0, and St. Augustine getting revenge for a loss in 2018 with a 33-13 romp over cross-town rival Menendez (St. Augustine).

Hawthorne, ranked 13th the week before, drops out of the poll after an upset 20-17 overtime loss at Newberry.

University Christian (Jacksonville), 14th a week ago, also is out after losing on the road, 35-20, to Christ Church (NC).

Nature Coast Tech dropped 11 spots to 19th in this week’s poll.

Bolles (Jacksonville) drops out of the rankings after their game against Hialeah-Miami Lakes was canceled. The Bulldogs’ game in Savannah against New Hampstead this Friday was also called off due to Hurricane Dorian.

Buchholz (Gainesville) rises to the top after impressive start

GAINESVILLE – In a span of three weeks, the Buchholz (Gainesville) volleyball team has gone from unranked all the way to the top of The Prep Zone Power Poll.

The Bobcats (5-0) jumped from No. 8 to No. 1 this week, after knocking off former No. 1 Trinity Catholic (Ocala), 3-2, on Monday.  This was the fourth top five win for the Bobcats this season after knocking off New Smyrna Beach a few days later and previous wins over Vanguard (Ocala) and Santa Fe (Alachua).

Buchholz was a unanimous selection, receiving all nine first-place votes.

Trinity Catholic (2-1) dropped down one spot to No. 2 after the intense loss to Buchholz last week, while Fleming Island (Orange Park) (2-0) stayed at No. 3 after sweeping Oakleaf (Orange Park), 3-0, in its lone match of the week.

Ponte Vedra (4-0) moved up from No. 7 to No. 4 after impressive wins over No. 15 Fletcher (Neptune Beach), 3-0, No. 19 Providence (Jacksonville), 3-1, and Menendez (St. Augustine), 3-0.

Spruce Creek (Port Orange) (2-1) dropped from No. 2 to No. 5 after a shocking 3-1 loss to Lyman (Longwood) this past week.

The biggest mover though was East Ridge (Clermont) (8-3), which tumbled from No. 6 to No. 9 after finishing fourth at the KSA Fall Classic over the weekend.

The Trophy Shop Athlete of the Week – Quan Smith (Buchholz)

The Trophy Shop Athlete of the Week for the week of August 19 is QUAN SMITH* of the Buchholz (Gainesville) football team.

*Smith helped lead the Bobcats to a 21-20 win against Eastside by rushing for 190 yards. The junior had 108 yards in the first half. However, it was his late fourth quarter 46-yard run, right after Eastside’s TD but blocked extra point, that helped seal the win. Smith had a 44-yard TD run in the first half and had Buchholz’s only score of the second half on a 40-yard pass from quarterback Jack Hevesy.

This is our first award of 2019. Here are last year’s winners:

Three days later, trailing 2-1 to Madison County in the Region Final, Neal had an RBI triple to tie the game in the fourth and then scored the game-winning run on an RBI single by Logan Head to help the Red Devils advance to Fort Myers.

This week on The Prep Zone

Unfortunately, due to Hurricane Dorian, Alachua County schools were out on Tuesday, so the Buchholz at Gainesville volleyball game was postponed. GHS is working on rescheduling the game so we’ll update you when we know more.

It was supposed to be our second broadcast of the year. However, Buchholz’s game vs. defending 5A state champion Trinity Catholic (Ocala) on Tuesday, April 27, was moved from Gainesville to Trinity Catholic and we elected to wait and broadcast the return game instead on Tuesday, Sept. 17. So our ‘first’ volleyball broadcast of 2019 will now be on Tuesday, Sept. 10, as Gainesville hosts rival Eastside.
