Plant City's Lowe getting attention

One thing is for sure about Plant City next football season: Rising senior Duran Lowe will see plenty of action .

Incoming coach Jason Strunk said he will use Lowe (left) in a variety of positions, including linebacker and safety. He will be on top of the Raiders' depth chart at running back, filling the shoes of the departed two-headed rushing monster of Sirchauncey Holloway (transferred to Armwood) and Keith Dawson (graduation).

Both Wake Forest and USF have made scholarship offers to Lowe, Plant City offensive coordinator Wayne Ward said.  Ward said more will likely be on the way.
