The St. Augustine Yellow Jackets Varsity Football Team wrapped up their annual 7 on 7 Summer play today in a game against the Clay High School Blue Devils at the Solomon Calhoun Center sports fields.  This was the fifth game of the Summer, as previous opponents included Oak Leaf HS, Mandarin HS, Bishop Kenny HS and Atlantic Coast HS.  The Yellow Jackets will finish their summer workouts on Tuesday, and be ready to start with the Fall football season practices starting on Monday, August 3rd.

St. Augustine High School quarterback Austin Reed had very productive Summer workouts and 7 on 7 games.  Austin finished todays game against Clay HS throwing for two touchdowns.  In addition to training with the Jackets football team this Summer, Austin has spent about 6 days per week working out with individual quarterback training, working with a speed and agility trainer, and many other days spent in the gym weight lifting.  Good luck to Austin and all of his Yellow Jackets Varsity Football teammates on a successful 2015 season.

Now that the Summer is here, there is one constant with high school football players in Florida, high school football work-outs are in full swing and players are attending skills camps at their favorite universities.  Austin Reed is doing both this year as a rising sophomore playing quarterback on the St. Augustine High School Yellow Jackets varsity football team.  Work-outs are already two weeks underway as full practice begins on August 1st in the Jackets quest for a 12th straight District Championship and playoff run.

Austin also recently attended the University of Miami – Al Golden Football Camp during the weekend of June 2oth and 21st.  The camp was held at the practice facilities at the University of Miami in Coral Gables, FL.  Austin enjoyed the experience with his QB peers, and received great verbal recognition from the Miami coaching staff he worked with and other visiting coaches from other programs around the country.
