IMG Academy Ascenders Break Ground on $2M Facility Upgrade
The IMG Academy Ascenders, a powerhouse in 8A Florida high school football, are set to embark on a new era with a $2 million facility upgrade. The Ascenders have been a consistent force in the state, boasting a 95% winning percentage over the past five seasons. The upgrade, which includes state-of-the-art weight rooms, locker rooms and training facilities, is expected to give the program a competitive edge in recruiting top talent. With the FHSAA's recent realignment, the Ascenders will face stiff competition from neighboring schools, making the upgraded facilities a crucial factor in maintaining their status as one of the top programs in the state. The Ascenders will begin their pre-season camp in August, with a highly anticipated season opener scheduled for late August.
