SOUTHWEST MIAMI HIGH SCHOOL EAGLES FOOTBALL

SPRING GAME STOPPED
DUE TO BRAWL

The spring game against BridgePrep Academy only lasted 18 plays before BridgePrep started a fight that caused officials and school administrators to call a halt to the contest. There was no score at the time and the final play of the game was the first play of the Eagles' second possession. Officials ejected two BridgePrep players and Southwest administrators were concerned that, if the game continued, another fight might break out. Many of the BridgePrep players do not attend their school, attending online schools like RISE Academy instead. As a result, BridgePrep coaches lack control over their team. To his credit, Southwest coach Anton Graham's bench players stayed on the sideline when the brawl broke out.

NEW DISTRICTS FOR '26

Southwest High, under the leadership of principal Jorge Bulnes, has seen an increase in enrollment. That means, for the next two seasons, the Eagles football team will be back in the largest classification the Florida High School Athletic Association has. District 16-6A will now consist of Southwest, Columbus, Palmetto, Coral Gables. Homestead and South Dade. The five non-district opponents have yet to be announced.
