Coral Springs High School boys basketball wins 5th District Championship

Coral Springs, Florida – Following their 73-48 win over Boca Raton Community High School, the Coral Springs High School boys basketball team were officially crowned District Champions Friday night.

The Colts previously won Districts in 2014, 2016, 2017, and 2018. During that time they also won a State Championship.

“It was an incredibly hard challenge in what has been a roller-coaster type of season, said Head Coach Devin Barta. I am proud of the kids for staying on course and believing in themselves and the coaches to pull out a District Championship.”

The Colts started the week off with a 56-37 win over Spanish River Community High School. Then, CSHS trailed by two points on Wednesday against Deerfield Beach when Allen Matthieu hit a game-winning three before Greg Spate forced a turnover with a block in the closing seconds.

As they beat seventh seed Boca Raton High School 73-48, CSHS completed the week with their most dominating win.

Spate, who led the team with 18 points in the semifinals, topped that with a game-high 21 on Friday.

Jordan Carmona added ten while Matthieu had nine as the Colts moved to 16-10 on the season.

Next, they will have a chance to compete in Regionals starting on Thursday, February 17.
