JACKSONVILLE, Florida -- The First Coast was not only represented well at the highest level of college football in 2017-18, but made quite an impact on the Football Championship Subdivision circuit, too.The Times-Union’s fifth annual All-First Coast FCS team featured 137 players with ties to the area, the third most representation of local players since we began this series in 2013. Only the 2013-14 (147) and ‘14-15 teams (145) have featured more players with ties to the First Coast than this one. Fleming Island leads the way with 10 players at the FCS level, followed by Fletcher (nine) and Raines and First Coast (eight apiece).
