The first meeting between two of the most legendary football programs of this century promises to be starry.
This is the case for any game involving the monarchs of Mater dei (Santa Ana, California) and the Raiders of St. Thomas Aquinas de Fort Lauderdale (Florida).
The powers of 2025, classified at national level n ° 1 (mater dei) and n ° 13 (St. Thomas Aquinas), meet at 7 p.m. Saturday (east) in Bradenton as part of Kick -off of the ESPN high school.
Mater Dei is the double title champion of the open division of CIF California, not to mention the national champions, according to High school on SI.
This game will greatly help determine if the monarchs will be three peat.
With a new quarter-back, either Ryan Hopkins with a much appreciated Wisconsin Or the backup of last year, Furian Inferrera Junior (Minnesota Commit), the monarchs will undoubtedly have some adjustments from the start.
The raiders, after an unprecedented seventh consecutive state title, have their own challenges after being hardly affected by obtaining the diploma. As usual, like monarchs, they simply recharge.
The two teams have combined to go 245-22 in the last 10 combined seasons.
