ORANGE PARK –For the Bronson Eagles, their 64-32 regional quarterfinal loss to Arlington Country Day was like deja vu all over again, except this year it came one round earlier, due to a shakeup in the regions by the Florida High School Activities Association.
ACD is the three-time defending state champion in 2A, and last year when the Eagles played in the Sweet 16, the Apaches had four senior McDonald's All-American nominees, including two players bound for University of Kentucky and Webber International University.
This year's Apaches were not all that, coming out of a rebuilding year, as it were, and carrying a record of 19-6.
Unlike their guests, 18-10 Bronson, ACD were again loaded with incredible size, with a frontcourt that averaged 6-7 and a 6-9 center. Junior big man Wally Judge has already committed to Kansas State, and was nearly unstoppable on the floor last Thursday, but the Apaches were missing guard R.J. Wright, one of their leading scorers, after a head injury in ACD's district semifinal.
