Outlook
This is a marquee matchup between two of the best teams in the state — and nation. Steinbrenner is ranked fourth in 2A, sixth in the state and 15th nationally according to MaxPreps. Bartram Trail is ranked second in the class, fourth in the state and fifth nationally. The Warriors are more than capable of advancing. They have won 16 straight games. Their only loss was by a goal (10-9) to Vero Beach, ranked first in the class and fourth nationally.
