The Sarasota Herald-Tribune is proud to honor area high school sports programs with our annual Sarasota-Manatee High School Sports Awards, which was held on Friday, May 30, 2025, at the Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall in Sarasota.
Throughout the year, The Herald-Tribune selects an All-Area team in each FHSAA sport. From those teams, we select an overall Boys Team of the Year.
We chose the Venice High football team for the 2024-25 season. We then asked you, our readers, to vote and select the team you think deserved to be the Boys Team of the Year.
After a week of voting, you selected the Sarasota High boys basketball team with 37.72% of the vote. The Sailors finished the season with a 28-3. The Sailors won their first regional crown in nearly seven decades as Sarasota rallied from a 9-point halftime deficit to win the Class 7A-Region 3 title over Osceola to advance to the State Final Four. The Sailors lost to Windermere in the Class 7A state semifinal.
