Palm Beach Top 10

The Atlantic football team continues to post impressive wins and continues to be the class of the county following a decisive 55-0 win over Spanish River.

With wins over three other top Palm Beach County teams, the Eagles have shown that they are still the team to beat right now. Atlantic will face Santaluces on Friday in a battle of teams undefeated in District 10-8A.
