Friday Night Hits: All football game recaps and scores from Central Florida

WE ALL LIKE A JET. WE’RE TAKING A FLIGHT. I KNOW MY WORTH IS TAKING A PRICE. YOU’RE TAKING A RISK AND ROLLING THE DICE. YEAH. FRIDAY NIGHT UNDER THE LIGHTS. WE ALL LIKE A JET. YEAH, WE’RE TAKING A FLIGHT. I KNOW MY WORTH IS TAKING THE PRICE. YOU’RE TAKING A RISK. ROLLING THE DICE. YOU HEARD THE SONG. YOU WERE DANCING. THAT MEANS IT’S WEEK THREE. HELLO, EVERYBODY. ALONGSIDE KRISTEN LAGO. I’M DAREN STOLZFUS. THIS IS FRIDAY NIGHT HITS. IT WAS A SOGGY SLOG OF A NIGHT ACROSS CENTRAL FLORIDA. LIGHTNING EVERYWHERE BUT A NIGHT OF FOOTBALL. ALWAYS BETTER. THE NIGHT WITHOUT FOOTBALL, I LIKE TO SAY SO, EVEN IF IT WAS ONLY A LITTLE BIT OF FOOTBALL AND A WHOLE LOT OF LIGHTNING COMING FROM THE GIRL WHO SAT IN HER CAR FOR TWO HOURS WAITING. ANYWAYS, WELCOME TO SEPTEMBER IN FLORIDA, RIGHT? WE GET OUR SHARE OF THOSE HERE, BUT WE ALSO GET OUR SHARE OF SOME GREAT GAMES. BUT WOULD OUR GAME OF THE WEEK FALL INTO THAT CATEGORY? DAREN. AND IT HAD LIGHTNING AS WELL. TWO OF THE TOP TEAMS IN THE SUNSHINE STATE DOING BATTLE TONIGHT. THE DREADNAUGHTS OF LAKELAND MAKING THE TRIP ALL THE WAY UP TO LAKE MARY. COULD LAKELAND’S GROUND EXCUSE ME, COULD LAKELAND GROUND THAT AERIAL ATTACK FROM THE RAMS THIRD STRAIGHT. TOUGH TEST TO START THE SEASON FOR SCOTT PERRY AND COMPANY. ALL RIGHT HERE COME THE RAMS. LET’S TAKE A LOOK A COUPLE IMPRESSIVE WINS TO START THE SEASON. BUT THIS ONE WOULD BE THE BIGGEST IF THEY COULD DO IT EARLY. GOING LAKELAND STRIKES FIRST JORDAN HENDERSON WALTZES INTO THE END ZONE. MAKES IT LOOK EASY. SEVEN TO NOTHING DREADNAUGHTS NOW GET USED TO HEARING THIS. THIS ONE DELAYED DURING THE FIRST HALF, JUST LESS THAN TWO HOURS. LIGHTNING IN THE AREA. NOT GREAT, BUT LAKE MARY COMES OUT FIRED UP. NO PROBLEM THROWING IN THE RAIN FOR NOAH GRUBBS. PASS TO PARKER PERALES, THEN MORE THROUGH THE AIR. GRUBBS IS GOING TO ROLL TO HIS RIGHT AND TOSS BACK TO CHASE HENSHAW. CHASE DOES THE REST, SCAMPERS IN FOR THE SCORE. MORE IN THE AERIAL ATTACK. FOURTH QUARTER. THIS WAS A TIE GAME. GRUBBS LOOK AT THIS BALL TO BRIAN WILLIAMS, JUNIOR. HE REELS IT IN FOR THE SCORE AT LAST CHECK 2821 A MINUTE. 11 LEFT LAKE MARY TRYING TO SEAL IT WITH A FIELD GOAL. THAT WOULD BE A HUGE WIN. MAYBE, JUST MAYBE, WE’LL SEE THE GAME WINNING PLAY A LITTLE LATER ON FRIDAY NIGHT. HITS. ALL RIGHT. OVER ON OUR FAN POLL PICK FAN PICK POLL. COME ON. TWO TEAMS IN DIFFERENT STYLES SCORED 54 POINTS IN THEIR ONLY GAME SO FAR THIS SEASON, A SHUTOUT OVER UNIVERSITY AND THEN WE LOVE TO SAY THERE’S APOPKA. THE BLUE DARTERS ARE TWO AND ZERO. THEY HAVEN’T ALLOWED A POINT ALL SEASON EITHER, BUT THEY’VE SCORED A TOTAL A TOTAL OF 16 POINTS IN TWO GAMES. NOT A LOT. YEAH. WOULD WE SEE MORE TONIGHT? NOT SURE TO APOPKA WE GO WHERE. YEAH. RAIN. LOTS OF RAIN. GET USED TO THAT. ALL RIGHT DOCTOR PHILLIPS UP SIX. NOTHING TRYING TO ADD TO IT HERE STANLEY ANDERSON. LOFTON WILL WANT THAT ONE BACK SWOOPED BY CHRISTOPHER CLAYTON WHO LOOKS LIKE HE MIGHT BE GONE SOMEHOW DP GOING TO CATCH UP TO HIM. THE QUARTERBACK SLOWS HIM DOWN. NO POINTS FOR A POP OFF THE INTERCEPTION. BLUE DARTERS FIRST POINTS COME RIGHT THERE. SECOND QUARTER MICHAEL WELLS THROUGH THE UPRIGHTS. MAKES IT 6 TO 3. THAT GIVES THE DARTERS SOMETHING TO CHEER ABOUT. BUT NOT MUCH ELSE IN THAT ONE. IN FACT NOTHING ELSE IN THAT ONE. APOPKA FALLS FOR THE FIRST TIME THIS SEASON. DP WILL TAKE IT 6 TO 3. THAT IS THE FINAL. DID YOU EXPECT ANYTHING ELSE? ALL RIGHT. WE’VE WAITED LONG ENOUGH FOR THIS ONE. THE BIGGEST MATCHUP IN THE STATE HAPPENED OUT ON THE WEST SIDE TONIGHT. TWO TIME DEFENDING STATE CHAMPION COCO TIGERS ON THE ROAD AT IMG ACADEMY. YEAH WE’VE BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS ONE REGARDLESS OF CLASSIFICATION OF WHERE THEY PLAY. ACCORDING TO THE NATIONAL RANKINGS, TWO OF THE TOP TEN TEAMS IN THE COUNTRY A LOT CLASHING IN BRADENTON. YEAH, NUMBER ONE VERSUS NUMBER TWO IN THE FLORIDA RANKINGS. ONLY TWO ROAD TEAMS IN THE LAST DECADE HAVE WON AT IMG. COCO DID NOT JOIN THAT ELITE COMPANY TONIGHT. SPOILER ALERT ONE POINT GAME, SECOND QUARTER TY HAWKINS. NICE PASS TO A WIDE OPEN ADONIS MOISE 14 SIX IMG BUT STILL BEFORE THE BREAK, HOW ABOUT BRADY HART. THE FUTURE MICHIGAN WOLVERINE FINDING THE FUTURE UCF KNIGHT AND JAVIN BOGGS DOING THE REST 72 YARD PITCH AND CATCH. AND JUST LIKE THAT IT IS A ONE POINT GAME. BUT DONOVAN JOHNSON HERE WILL SCAMPER FOR THE SCORE. COCO GETS SHUT OUT IN THE SECOND HALF. TIGERS HANDED THEIR FIRST DOUBLE DIGIT LOSS SINCE WEEK TWO OF 2022. IMG ACADEMY 3413. THE FINAL SCORE FOR COCO, ALL RIGHT, AFTER A NEARLY TWO HOUR LIGHTNING DELAY, WE FINALLY HAD A COIN FLIP OVER AT EDGEWATER, TAKING ON FREEDOM COACH CAM DUKE NOT SMILING. STRANGE BECAUSE THERE WAS A LOT TO SMILE ABOUT FOR THE EAGLES FIRST PLAY FROM SCRIMMAGE HERE. CARTER EMANUEL LETS IT FLY. HE’S GOING TO FIND TYSON CARTER IN STRIDE. ONLY TOOK HIM 12 SECONDS. BUT THEY MAKE IT SEVEN. NOTHING. EDGEWATER MORE OF THAT TO COME. THIS TIME IT’S SEMAJ FLEMING IN THE WILDCAT. HE WILL TAKE IT THROUGH TRAFFIC AND IN FOR SIX. EAGLES WERE UP 21. NOTHING IN LESS THAN FIVE MINUTES. EDGEWATER EASILY BREEZES OVER THE PATRIOTS 56 TO NOTHING IS THE FINAL IN THAT 104 PATRIOTS LINEMAN LOOKING TO BOUNCE BACK FROM A LOSS LAST WEEK AT TOHOPEKALIGA, THEY WERE HOSTING SEMINOLE TONIGHT. SEMINOLE WOULD SCORE FIRST. THEY HAND THE BALL OFF TO KIMANI ROBINSON. HE SPINS. HE SCORES. NOLES GO FOR TWO. DON’T GET IT. SIX TO NOTHING. THEY WERE DRIVING AGAIN LATE IN THE FIRST. HOW ABOUT JADEN DOUGLAS THE DEFENSE FRESHMAN WITH THE PICK NEARLY BREAKS IT OFF FOR THE SCORE. BUT A TOUCHDOWN SAVING SHOESTRING TACKLE FROM XAVIER TUCKER KEEPS THE SCOREBOARD CLEAN THERE. STILL DANCING. NO POINTS AFTER THE PICK. HUGE PLAY, BUT THE GREYHOUNDS PUNTING HERE. BRANDON SIMS BLOCKS IT. BALL BOUNCES FREE SOMEHOW. CADEN REYES ENDS UP WITH IT, GETS THE SCORE. SEMINOLE TAKES IT 4313. THAT GAME WAS CALLED IN THE THIRD QUARTER. ALL RIGHT, LET’S TAKE A TRIP IN. CHOPPER TWO HORIZON AT WEKIVA. BOTH TEAMS LOOKING FOR THEIR FIRST WIN OF THE YEAR. TAKE A LOOK AT THAT. IT’S ABOUT THE ONLY ACTUAL FOOTBALL CHOPPER TWO SAW TONIGHT. WEKIVA LOST BY 37 TO EDGEWATER. THREE DAYS AGO. THEY HAD DOUBLE DUTY AGAIN THIS WEEK. WEATHER WAS AN ISSUE, BUT IN THE THIRD, AT LAST CHECK, WEKIVA WITH A TEN POINT LEAD. ALL RIGHT. ZIPPING OVER TO OCOEE. YEAH, THAT’S NEVER A GOOD SIGN. WE SAW A LOT OF THIS TONIGHT. EMPTY FIELD, EMPTY BLEACHERS, 0 TO 0 ON THE SCOREBOARD. THEY PLAYED TWO MINUTES AND 17. WE KNOW THEY PLAYED SOMETHING, BUT TO BE HONEST, WE’RE NOT SURE WHAT EXACTLY HAPPENED IN THIS GAME. THAT’S ABOUT ALL WE GOT FROM LAKE NONA AT OCOEE. ALL RIGHT. SCORES FROM AROUND THE AREA. THE FIRST ACADEMY CONTINUES THEIR HOT START TO THE SEASON. 42 SEVEN WINS OVER A VERY GOOD TREASURE COAST TITANS TEAM. 42 SEVEN SOUTH DADE COMES UP TO OSCEOLA. BUT IT LOOKS LIKE THE COWBOYS OF THE K GOING TO COME AWAY WITH THE VICTORY. ALL RIGHT, MORE SCORES COMING FOR YOU OVIEDO WITH A HUGE WIN 50 BURGER OVER LAKE BRANTLEY 55 TO NOTHING IS THE FINAL THERE. AND THEN WEST ORANGE GETS A CLOSE WIN OVER TITUSVILLE 2421 IS THE FINAL I’VE GOT AN UPDATE FROM OUR GAME OF THE WEEK LAKE MARY MISSED THE FIELD GOAL. THAT WAS TRYING TO SEAL IT. GUESS WHAT? LAKELAND SCORED IN ONE PLAY AFTER THAT, TIED AT 28. WE’LL SEE WHAT HAPPENS. ALL RIGHT. WE’RE COMING BACK IN JUST A MINUTE. HEADED OUT TO BREVARD COUNTY. CHRISTIAN. WE GOT A GOOD ONE BETWEEN MERRITT ISLAND AND DELAND. ALL RIGHT. WELCOME BACK. AS OUR GAME OF THE WEEK GOES TO OVERTIME, WE’RE TALKING SOME FOOTBALL OUT IN BREVARD COUNTY. NICE MATCHUP ON MERRITT ISLAND TONIGHT. THE TWO AND OH MUSTANGS HOSTING THE DELAND BULLDOGS I LIKE THE SOUND OF THAT. DELAND OPENED UP THE SEASON WITH A 42 TO 28 LOSS AT HOME TO MADISON COUNTY, BUT RESPONDED WITH A BIG ROAD WIN AT NEW SMYRNA BEACH. LOOKING FOR SOME SIMILAR EXCUSE ME, SIMILAR RESULTS IF I CAN SPEAK BY THE COAST AGAIN TONIGHT. ALL RIGHT. STAYING GANG OF MERRITT ISLAND, TRYING TO STAY UNBEATEN THIS YOUNG SEASON. BUT THOSE BULLDOGS DID NOT GET THE MESSAGE. SECOND DELAND DRIVE OF THE GAME CORY MARCELLUS FROM 17 YARDS OUT. LOOK AT THAT. CARRIES IT INTO THE END ZONE. TOUCHDOWN SEVEN. NOTHING. BULLDOGS IN FRONT. MUSTANGS TRYING TO RESPOND SEAN HARTMAN THE QUARTERBACK KEEPER PICKS UP THE FIRST DOWN INSIDE THE 30. MOVES THE CHAINS ON A BIG THIRD DOWN. BUT THE NEXT PLAY NAIL AND ROGERS PICKS IT OFF. THE SOPHOMORE CUTTING IN FRONT. AND HE GONE. NUMBER THREE. TAKES IT OFF FOR 614. NOTHING. DELAND IN FRONT. THE DOGS GO ON TO OUTLAST THE MUSTANGS IN A ONE SCORE GAME. HERE’S ANOTHER TOUCHDOWN 3528 DELAND TAKES IT. MOVING ON OVER TONIGHT. ROCKLEDGE RAIDERS GETTING COACHED UP FOR THE START OF THE SECOND HALF ZERO ZERO TIED UP TO START THE THIRD QUARTER MICHAEL ARBOR BOOTS IT OUT FROM 45 YARDS TO GET ROCKLEDGE ON THE BOARD. WE GOT POINTS THREE NOTHING. RAIDERS OVER HAWKS. VIERA WITH TWO MINUTES ON THE CLOCK. DOWN THREE BUT OH NO YEAH THAT’S A SACK SACK BIG SACK BY CONLON OAKLEY DONOVAN RICHARDSON WILL RUN IT IN FROM SIX YARDS OUT TO MAKE THE HOME CROWD VERY HAPPY. THEY’RE BREATHING EASY TEN TO NOTHING. ROCKLEDGE. AND THAT IS THE FINAL SCORE. ALL RIGHT. HOW’S THIS FOR YOUR FIRST TWO GAMES. 50 TO NOTHING 52 TO NOTHING. THAT’S HOW SPRUCE CREEK STARTED THIS SEASON I’D SAY PRETTY GOOD, WOULDN’T YOU? TONIGHT A STEP UP IN COMPETITION WITH CREEKSIDE VISITING PORT ORANGE DESPITE KNOWING TWO RECORD THE KNIGHTS, A PERENNIAL PLAYOFF TEAM FROM SAINT JOHNS THANKS TO SOME TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES. NO HIGHLIGHTS THERE. SPRUCE CREEK, THOUGH IT APPEARS, THOUGH, DOES COME AWAY WITH A ONE TOUCHDOWN WIN. ALL RIGHT, BOONE ON THE ROAD AT OLYMPIA TONIGHT. WHAT DO YOU KNOW? WEATHER WAS AN ISSUE. CHOPPER TWO WAS IN THE AIR TRYING TO SEE SOME FOOTBALL. COUPLE ONE ON ONE TEAMS. THIS ONE DID GET GOING EVENTUALLY. IT WAS DELAYED AND THEN EVENTUALLY CALLED IN THE THIRD QUARTER AND EVENTUALLY THE BOONE BRAVES EVENTUALLY PICK UP THEIR SECOND WIN OF THE SEASON. EVENTUALLY WE’RE GETTING TO THE END OF THIS 127 SEVEN. THE FINAL OVER THE TITANS. ALL RIGHT. EVENTUALLY OVER IN THE LIONS DEN FOUNDATION HOSTING THE BRONSON EAGLES. JUST NOT WHILE CHOPPER TWO IS HOVERING. FOUNDATION ACADEMY WITH A STRONG PERFORMANCE THOUGH TOPPING BRONSON 42 TO NOTHING. NOT THAT WE SAW IT. NOT A BAD WAY TO PICK UP THEIR FIRST WIN OF 2024. LIONS ARE OFF FOR A WEEK BEFORE HOSTING THE HUSTLERS OF MELBOURNE CENTRAL CATHOLIC. YOU KNOW IT’S NOT RARE. CHOPPER TWO GOES ZERO FOR FOUR, BUT THAT’S WHAT HAPPENED TONIGHT. ALL RIGHT. YOU CAN SAY IT WAS BUZZING AT BISHOP MOORE. BATTLE OF THE BEES. LITERALLY THE HORNETS TAKING ON THE BARTOW YELLOWJACKETS. BISHOP MOORE UP SIX THREE. WHEN WE GOT THERE BARTOW QUARTERBACK ETHAN BRUCE IN TROUBLE. SCRAMBLING. TRIES TO GET IT TO JAMARCUS AYERS INSTEAD. YEAH. PICKED OFF BY RON SCHRODER THE FRESHMAN TAKES IT TO THE HOUSE. PUTS THE HORNETS UP 12 TO 3 IN THE FIRST QUARTER. YELLOWJACKETS THOUGH WOULD GET ANOTHER CHANCE NEXT POSSESSION BRUCE TO HIRES IN THE CORNER FOR SIX. YEAH GAME WENT ON A LITTLE LATE TONIGHT AT LAST CHECK. BISHOP MOORE WAS HOLDING THE LEAD 19 TO 9 IN THE THIRD QUARTER. ALL RIGHT HERE WE GO.
