Last season was full of a lot of promise for Demetric Jackson and his Fort White Indians. After a nine-win season in 2016, the Indians were poised to make a serious run last year, but took a step back, finishing 7-4, including a heartbreaking 28-27 loss in double overtime to Florida State University School. The loss left Jackson and his team looking for answers, and perhaps with 13 returning starters in 2018, they’ll be able to find some. Of the total starters coming back this season, Jackson will have seven on offense and six on defense. Offensively, Fort White will depend on Columbia High transfer Dylan Blair, wide out Rahman Paul, quarterback Brayden Summers, and running back Corey Dryden to lead the offense. Defensively, the Indians will count on returning contributors Kameron Calhoun, Donovan Jenkins, Izaya Latham, and Kobie Archer. “My expectations for this team are to advance deep into the playoffs and make a run at a state championship,” Jackson said. The path for Jackson and his team begins on the road in Live Oak against Kyler Hall’s Suwannee County Bulldogs.
