When I spoke with St. Thomas Aquinas head coach Rocco Casullo on May 1st on the NHSCA Sports Hour about his first-year as the leader of the Raiders, he said he would learn a lot about his team in the first three games of the year.
The Raiders, who won ESPN's mythical national championship last year, showed on Saturday that the cupboard isn't bare with a big 34-31 interstate road victory over Alabama-power Prattville.
Casullo, who took over for the legendary George Smith, knows his team can't rest on its laurels with it's next game being against in-state rival Cypress Bay and then a September 23rd showdown with national power De La Salle from California.

Don't forget to check-in the High School Football America and The High School Football Huddle later tonight for the rest of Saturday's scores.
