Try fastweb or check your financial aid office they would know of other organizations that give scholarships. Being involved in sports and being active in different clubs and other activities would actually help you because you would be more than just a person that goes to class and that's it. Being involved and having that GPA is better than just having good grades and nothing else. And don't just look for academic scholarships, there are many types of scholarships some are even for volunteer and community involvement.

I don't know about schools in FL, but a great website for all sorts of scholarships is FastWeb. I got a Marriam-Webster award for an essay there once, and I know lots who've had success on it. Good luck!
