Robert Northway “Keystone” Memorial
When & where: Friday & Saturday at the Clay County Fairgrounds (hosted by Fleming Island).
Teams in the field: In addition to the hosts (2nd in 2A), Bolles, Ed White, Florida High (13th in 1A), Ft Walton Beach (15th in 2A), Lincoln (10th in 2A), Middleburg (18th in 2A), Oakleaf, Palatka, St Johns Country Day, Suwannee (8th in 1A), Terry Parker, West Nassau, along with out-of-area team Heritage, will be in the field.
Returning team champion: Fleming Island won last year’s IBT event; this year’s format is callout on Friday and duals on Saturday. There will be girls’ competition on Saturday, also in callout, weight-blocked format.
Synopsis: In addition to the host Golden Eagles, several FHSAA region-round qualifiers from the coverage area will be in the event. Middleburg has already won a district duals event, and a few teams in contest for district duals titles today are in the mix. That said, I wouldn’t expect anyone to hang in for long against the hosts after their performance Wednesday night at district duals in New Smyrna Beach, in which they gave up one decision loss in three duals.
