Honorable Mentions and Statistical Requirements – “While numerous players demonstrated exceptional skill this season, only those with official statistics recorded on MaxPreps were considered for the All-County team. Unfortunately, players from Eustis High and South Sumter High were not eligible due to the absence of official statistics online. Moving forward, all teams are encouraged to report their statistics officially to ensure full representation in postseason honors.
Congratulations to all the athletes selected for the 2024 All-County Boys Soccer Team, and best of luck in their future endeavors on and off the field.
