Titletown South Florida: A state hoops preview and talkin’ football with Larry Blustein
Titletown South Florida returns with Miami Herald Deputy Sports Editor Andre Fernandez and Sportswriter David Wilson recapping the top storylines from last week’s girls’ basketball state championships as well as a look ahead to the boys’ basketball state finals this week in Lakeland.
Wilson interviews some of the stars from Miami Country Day and St. Thomas Aquinas’ championship wins and he and Fernandez break down what to expect this week as five South Florida teams (Miami Columbus, Miami Belen Jesuit, Miami Mater Lakes, Miami Riviera Prep and Weston Sagemont) all vie for titles.
Fernandez also sits down with football recruiting analyst and WQAM radio host Larry Blustein to talk about the latest news and notes around South Florida so far this offseason. Hint: There’s been a TON of transfers and coaching changes with some interesting ones.

We also salute this week’s Player of the Week nominees from both Dade and Broward Counties ranging from basketball to baseball and softball as the spring sports season is almost fully underway.
