Lakelands Players to Watch

Football season is finally here! Teams across the state will start practicing tomorrow and we couldn’t be happier. You can expect to see previews of each Lakelands team in the coming days, but we wanted to make sure everyone could argue over the weekend. With that in mind we present to you the Lakelands Top 50 Players to Watch in 2023. The Top 10 have been ranked with the rest in alphabetical order. This is our subjective list based on our collective experience covering Lakelands football. Best of luck to all the teams and, as football fans have been saying since the Super bowl, SPOT THE DAMN BALL!
