Prepping for the BCAA Big 8: A look back at all the championship results January 27th, 2012
With the BCAA Girls Big 8 Basketball Championship set to begin Thursday at Deerfield Beach, we figured it’d be interesting to take a walk down memory lane…or more accurately, revisit all the boys and girls championship matchups.
On the girls side, powerhouses Dillard and South Broward have each won 5 Big 8 titles–more than any of the other programs in Broward County. And it was Deerfield Beach that put up the biggest margin of victory, besting Dillard 78-45 in 2003.
On the boys, no one has more titles than Dillard or Boyd Anderson, both of whom have won five championships.
Here’s the all-time list of Big 8 winners. Who do you think will be bringing the titles home this year?
