The town of Jupiter is prominently known for the laid back lifestyle. Palm trees, chill vibes, and a 105 foot bright red lighthouse overlooking crystal blue oceans are some of the things that give the most northern point of Palm Beach it’s charm.
Outside of the natural beauty, the 21.1 sq mile town of Jupiter, Florida has yet another thing to boast- they’re home to the only undefeated football team in Palm Beach County. The Jupiter High Warriors finalized their 2025 regular season in dominant fashion, defeating the South Fork Bulldogs 42-0 on senior night.
Jupiter currently stands as the #14 team in the FHSAA 7A Division, now heralded amongst perennial powerhouses including Venice, Vero Beach, Seminole and Lake Mary. The Warriors came away with numerous statement wins on the season, defeating Palm Beach Central in District play, alongside historical cross town rivals Dwyer and Palm Beach Gardens.

As you can see- Jupiter’s offense prides itself on balance. The Warriors have prided themselves on their ability to establish the run, while also light up a defense in the air. Jupiter’s senior QB Andrew Embick reflected on the offensive symmetry, while also speaking on etching his name as one of the greats to come out of Indiantown:
“It feels amazing to be apart of such a talented offense. Every guy around is committed to the process and are unselfish. Blocking on the perimeter for other receivers and doing whatever they can to help. It makes my job easier establishing this trust foundation with the offense.” Embick stated. “It’s truly an awesome accomplishment. I want to continue to grow and push for excellence in these playoffs and cement this programs success. One of the biggest factors of my success and the success of the team was the fact that there were few who advocated for us prior to this season. We are an extremely motivated team that sees opportunity in everything.“
Embick, a two year starter, solidified himself as one of the top gunslingers in the State this season. Throughout the regular season; Andrew Embick displayed elite poise and precision from the pocket, but was also able to make the off platform shots when necessary. The 6 foot pea shooter holds two offers, from St Thomas University (NAIA) and Denison (DIII).
What’s the biggest catalyst for Jupiter’s continued successes over the past four years? Consistency. In an era of sports (both High School and the NCAA), where the Transfer Portal is so prevalent, it’s so easy to get caught up in the theatrics of bouncing between schools. As for the Jupiter High Warriors- they’ve got a 2026 senior class of 29 athletes, all of which were in the locker room the first day Coach Jason Kradman took the reins of the program.
“Our guys have won a lot of games over the past three years and our seniors have played in close to 40 games at the varsity level. We feel like we can compete with anybody and look forward to the challenge that lies ahead. Consistency will be the key for our guys and as always putting them in the best position to be successful!” Coach Kradman shared. “We certainly made big plays in the biggest moments this year, led by our 29 seniors that are ALL from Jupiter allowed us to be a perfect 10-0 on the regular season, with plenty more football on the way.”
Jupiter now becomes the captains of their own destiny. In the early rounds of the FHSAA Playoffs, everything should run through Military Trail. As most programs would agree, early home field advantage is key for a deep playoff push. But for Jupiter, I can confidently say the Warriors have hosted the best gameday atmosphere in Palm Beach County.
“ I think that’s certainly an advantage. We have a fantastic community behind us here in Jupiter that really supports us whether we’re home or on the road but to be able to have so many fans in the stands throughout the past four years and beyond has been truly special to see…” Coach Kradman stated. “When you factor in our tremendous coaching staff with so many of them being Jupiter alumni, it only adds to the Hometown feel. I’m excited for our town & our community and hope we can keep this rolling!”
What’s next for the Jupiter Warriors? Only time will tell. The official FHSAA Playoff Bracket will be announced next Thursday, November 6th at 2PM. The live-streamed broadcast of the selection show will be presented on the FHSAA’s Youtube page.
