2017 Season Previews: Fletcher vs Ponte Vedra Kickoff Classic

It was a preview to the regular season, as teams faced one another around Northeast Florida. Check out what happened in High School football with these four teams in the 2017 kickoff classic below. As we preview each team for the 2017 regular season.

Fletcher vs Ponte Vedra

The defending Class 5A State Runner Ups started the season on the right in Stepp; #1 Jarrett Stepp that is. The big play receiver/ athlete is a dynamic and explosive player for Ponte Verda. He showcased this against Fletcher as he scored on a long TD reception early in the first quarter.Head coach Matt Toblin should be excited about the talent on his roster once again. After making it to Orlando last year, tempered expectations are in order for a younger more inexperienced team. However the coaching is still there to make the sharks smell blood in the water.

Fletcher started quick as well when #1 athlete Anthony Evelyn took a kickoff return to the house, electrifying the capacity crowd. Evelyn joins the big 6 foot 3 inch target at wide receiver Jeremiah Payton, as two play makers for Fletcher that Head Coach Kevin Brown looks to go to. Brown s,would say after both teams played to a 7-7 tie at halftime, that he was ” proud of his team but thought they could be more athletic” Brown and Toblin would both insert their reserves and JV in the second half. Look for both teams to showcase their athleticism this year.
