The Class 5A-District 8 crown is on the line Friday night when Tampa Bay Tech travels to East Bay.
Both squads have been firing on all cylinders in the back half of the season. East Bay picked up two nail-biting wins over a rival and district opponent in back-to-back weeks, while Tampa Bay Tech has outscored opponents 92-3 in the last two weeks and their defense hasn’t allowed more than seven points through their five game win-streak.
