1. Plant

2. Armwood

3. Tampa Bay Tech

4. Largo

5. Countryside

TEAM MOST LIKELY TO WIN STATE TITLE

Armwood. They are one of the favorites in the 4A class. They feature a tremendous defense with some play-makers on the offensive side. The road will not be an easy one, including potentially Charlotte and Dwyer, but Armwood has the depth and talent to win the State Title.
