The Herald-Tribune is proud to honor area high school sports programs with our Top Teams list and poll this season. This will be a monthly feature Sarasota and Manatee high school teams that rise above the rest.

At the beginning of each month during the high school competitive seasons, the Herald-Tribune will select the teams that stood out the month before for their stellar achievements, grit, and sportsmanship. Once we compile the list, we will leave it up to you to decide which squads deserve to be named the Herald-Tribune Top Team of the Month.
Nominees are derived from scores and stats emailed by Sarasota and Manatee County coaches to [email protected]. Coaches and athletic directors are encouraged to submit a nomination by the last day of each month if they have a team that deserves recognition.
For March, we selected 10 nominees and after a week of voting, the Cardinal Mooney baseball team finished with 61% of the vote. The Cougars went a perfect 12-0 in March to build an 18-3 record and are ranked within the Top 30 in the state.
The other nine nominees were Bradenton Christian girls lacrosse, Lakewood Ranch boys lacrosse, Lakewood Ranch Boys Weightlifting, Manatee Boys Lacrosse, Manatee Flag Football, Sarasota Boys Basketball, Sarasota Softball, Venice Baseball, Venice Boys Weightlifting.
You can look for the next list of nominees and the Top Teams poll for April in early May, 2026, at heraldtribune.com.
