WELCOME TO FRIDAY NIGHT HITS ALONGSIDE KRISTEN LAGO. I AM DAREN STOLZFUS IT IS THE FINAL WEEK OF THE REGULAR SEASON. WEEK 11 AND ANOTHER HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL SEASON COMING TO AN END. IT IS FOR SOME TONIGHT. IT’S KIND OF CRAZY THAT WE’RE HERE ALREADY. WE DO HAVE SOME MAKEUP GAMES NEXT THURSDAY THANKS TO HURRICANE MILTON, BUT YES, TONIGHT SUPPOSED TO BE THE REGULAR SEASON FINALE AND THE SCHEDULE DEFINITELY REFLECTED THAT. ABSOLUTELY. SOME FANTASTIC RIVALRY SHOWDOWNS ON THE SLATE FOR TONIGHT, INCLUDING OUR GAME OF THE WEEK. DOCTOR PHILLIPS, THE SCHOOL THAT SPLIT OFF FROM WEST ORANGE NEARLY 40 YEARS AGO, HOSTING THE WARRIORS. THE BATTLE FOR THE OLD ORANGE CRATE. THEY’VE MET EIGHT TIMES IN THE LAST DECADE. EACH SCHOOL WINNING FOUR TIMES. AND THIS YEAR, BOTH WITH JUST ONE LOSS. ENTERING TONIGHT’S CLASH. THAT ORANGE CRATE? WHO DOESN’T WANT TO WIN THAT OUT IN THE SHADOWS OF UNIVERSAL STUDIOS? ONLY ONE CAN CLAIM THE CRATE HERE IN 2024. EARLY FIRST QUARTER STANLEY ANDERSON LOFTON LOOKING DEEP. HE FINDS HIS MAN CAM DIXON REELS IT IN, DOES THE REST. PANTHERS UP SEVEN TO NOTHING. A LITTLE BIT LATER, THE HANDOFF WILL GO TO KEN WHITE. HE’LL PLUNGE IN FROM ABOUT A YARD OUT. MISS PATTY MADE IT A 13 THREE LEAD FOR DP. THIRD QUARTER. THIS WAS A WEIRD ONE. DOCTOR PHILLIPS DIDN’T HAVE A SINGLE POSSESSION. WEST ORANGE CAPITALIZING ON A NEARLY TEN MINUTE DRIVE WHEN BRIAN DILLARD FINDS RYAN BROWN FOR THE SCORE. BUT DOCTOR PHILLIPS JUST TOO MUCH FOR THE WARRIORS TO HANDLE IN THIS ONE. FOURTH QUARTER. ANDERSON LOFTON WILL FIND DIXON ONCE AGAIN. SECOND TOUCHDOWN OF THE DAY FOR THOSE TWO. THE OLD ORANGE CRATE STILL BELONGS TO THE PANTHERS. WITH MORE FROM OUR GAME OF THE WEEK. HERE’S WESH 2’S ZACH MASKAVICH. HEY THERE DAREN AND CHRISTOPHER. WE TALKED ABOUT IT EARLIER. THIS MIGHT BE ONE OF THE COOLEST RIVALRY NICKNAMES IN ALL OF CENTRAL FLORIDA. THE BATTLE FOR THE OLD ORANGE CRATE. IT’S A RIVALRY THAT DATES BACK TO 1987. IN THAT VERY FIRST MEETING, IT WAS WEST ORANGE THAT CAME AWAY WITH A SEVEN NOTHING WIN. AND FAST FORWARD TO THE 2024 VERSION AND IT’S DOCTOR PHILLIPS THAT WILL KEEP THE OLD ORANGE CRATE HERE IN THE SHADOWS OF UNIVERSAL STUDIOS. AND YOU CAN TELL HOW MUCH A RIVALRY WIN OF THIS MAGNITUDE MEANS TO THE PLAYERS AND THE COACHES. IT’S A BIG GAME, BIG RIVALRY. LIKE I SAID, PREGAME, I PLAYED IN THIS GAME WHEN I WAS 15 YEARS OLD. I HELD THAT CRATE WHEN I WAS 15 AND BE 30 YEARS LATER. IT’S SOMETHING SPECIAL TO US ALL. IT MEANS A LOT TO BE ABLE TO INK OURSELVES ON THAT CRATE MY SENIOR YEAR. IT MEANS EVERYTHING TO ME. WE CAME INTO THIS WEEK KNOWING WE HAD TO MAKE UP FOR THE LOSS THAT WE HAD AGAINST EDGEWATER, WHICH WAS WEEKS PAST. WE’RE STILL TRYING TO GET BETTER EVERY DAY. THIS IS ONE STEP TOWARDS PERFECTION, SO NOW IT’S PLAYOFF TIME FOR BOTH OF THESE TEAMS. DOCTOR PHILLIPS HEADS INTO THE PLAYOFFS, FINISHING THE REGULAR SEASON EIGHT AND ONE ON THE YEAR. MEANWHILE, WEST ORANGE WILL LOOK TO BOUNCE BACK IN WEEK ONE OF THE PLAYOFFS. THEY FINISHED THE REGULAR SEASON SEVEN AND TWO ON THE SEASON AT OUR GAME OF THE WEEK AT DOCTOR PHILLIPS HIGH SCHOOL ZACH MASKAVICH WESH TWO SPORTS. THANK YOU ZACH OUR FAN PICK POLL. ANOTHER TIGHT RACE ON WESH.COM LESS THAN TEN VOTES DECIDED THIS ONE. I LOVE A CLOSE ONE, BUT BISHOP MOORE AT LAKE MARY THE GAME THAT WILL GET A LITTLE EXTRA LOVE TONIGHT. A BATTLE OF BIG TIME QUARTERBACKS IN THIS ONE. YEAH. ROSCOE THE RAM BETTING ON NOAA GRUBBS AND LAKE MARY TO FINISH OUT THE REGULAR SEASON WITH A DUB. BUT BJORN JORGENSEN AND THE HORNETS WOULD HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY ABOUT IT. OPENING DRIVE HANDOFF GOES TO AMARI JOHNSON. UP THE GUT. AND IN FOR SIX. HE GOES. HORNETS WERE BUZZING IN THE FIRST QUARTER. BISHOP MOORE WOULD DOUBLE THE LEAD RIGHT HERE. JURGENSEN ON THE KEEPER. TOUCHDOWN HORNETS. LAKE MARY DOWN 14 TO 3 BEFORE THE OFFENSE FINALLY CAME TO LIFE. FIRST GRUBBS AT THE GOAL LINE TO GIVE THE RAMS SOME ENERGY. AND THEN A LITTLE LATER HE DECIDES TO SHOW OFF THE ARM AS WELL. FAKES THE HANDOFF AND SLINGS IT TO CARSON FREEMAN. WATCH THIS. HE WILL NOT GO DOWN WITHOUT A FIGHT. MAKES HIS WAY ALL THE WAY INTO THE END ZONE. RAMS BATTLING BACK TO TAKE DOWN THE HORNETS 34 TO 16 IS THE FINAL. LITERALLY FIGHTING OCOEE LOOKING TO SPOIL JONES IS UNDEFEATED SEASON TONIGHT. FIGHTING TIGERS JUST TWO WINS AWAY FROM ACHIEVING THEIR FIRST TEN ZERO SEASON SINCE 1968. KNIGHTS PRETTY FIRED UP FOR THIS ONE, THOUGH. FIRST PASS PLAY OF THE GAME JONES QUARTERBACK TO DARIAN COLEMAN LAUNCHES IT, BUT HOW ABOUT OCOEE’S JOSH GREER WHO COMES UP WITH IT. THAT’S AN INTERCEPTION. KNIGHTS OFFENSE THOUGH CANNOT PUT TOGETHER A SCORING DRIVE. SCORELESS AFTER THE FIRST QUARTER. FIGHTING TIGERS GOING BACK TO THE RUN THIS TIME. JAQUEL SMITH WILL MUSCLE HIS WAY IN FOR THE SCORE. THAT’S HALF THE TOUCHDOWNS TONIGHT. SEVEN NOTHING AT THE BREAK. THEY HANG ON. IT IS A 14 NOTHING WIN JONES IS STILL UNDEFEATED. ALL RIGHT. FLYING OVER EVANS. OR EXCUSE ME EVANS COMING OFF BACK TO BACK LOSSES TAKING OUT THEIR FRUSTRATIONS. YEAH YOU COULD SAY THAT ON OAK RIDGE TONIGHT. PIONEERS PUNTING. NOBODY WILL PICK IT UP UNTIL DAREN ROGERS SAYS I’LL TAKE THAT. NOBODY EVEN TOUCHES HIM. TAKES IT ALL THE WAY TO THE HOUSE TO PUT THE TROJANS IN FRONT. AT THAT POINT, IT WAS 63 TO NOTHING MORE FROM EVANS, THOUGH, WAS COMING. NASIR MCMILLAN BACK TO PASS. NOBODY OPEN. SO HE TUCKS IT AND SCORES IT. NOBODY TOUCHES HIM EITHER. EVANS WITH A HUGE WIN TONIGHT 69 TO NOTHING IS THE FINAL SCORE. WHO GOT A D UP. ALL RIGHT. ONE OF THE LONGEST RUNNING RIVALRIES IN CENTRAL FLORIDA IS ONE OF THE MOST SPIRITED ONES. AS WELL. BOONE AND EDGEWATER CLOSING OUT THE REGULAR SEASON AGAINST EACH OTHER AS THEY TYPICALLY DO LOVE THESE RIVALRIES. BOONE TRYING TO BREAK THROUGH THE BRAIN. BRAIN, THE BRAINS BRAVES HAD LOST SIX STRAIGHT TO THE EAGLES, ENTERING TONIGHT, HAD IT KNOCKED OFF EDGEWATER SINCE 2017. THAT MEANS THE SPIRIT BARREL. THERE IT IS. HAS RESIDED AT EDGEWATER FOR QUITE A WHILE. EAGLES HOPING TO KEEP THAT ON THEIR SIDELINE AT NIGHT’S END. BUT BOONE WAS FEELING GOOD. HAD ONLY ALLOWED THREE POINTS IN THE LAST THREE GAMES COMBINED COMING INTO THIS ONE, BUT EDGEWATER TOPPED THAT THEIR OPENING DRIVE. CARTER EMANUEL, QUARTERBACK KEEPER MAKES IT SEVEN TO NOTHING ENSUING DRIVE. BRAVES GO FOR IT ON FOURTH DOWN IN EAGLES TERRITORY AS XAVIER DENMARK SAYS NO, NO, NO. THAT WOULD LEAD TO A QUICK SCORE HERE. JULIAN PRIME PUTTING SIX ON THE BOARD. A FEW PLAYS LATER 14 NOTHING. EDGEWATER SECOND QUARTER JOSH PERRY WEAVING HIS WAY THROUGH TRAFFIC IN FOR THE SCORE. THIS WAS ALL EDGEWATER TONIGHT 4214. THE FINAL SCORE ON TO THIS MAYOR’S CUP ON THE LINE AT WEKIVA. STAYING TRYING TO HAND THE BLUE DARTERS THEIR FIFTH STRAIGHT LOSS OF THE SEASON. BUT APOPKA NOT GOING DOWN THAT EASY. BLUE DARTERS WOULD GO UP 13. NOTHING AFTER THE TOUCHDOWN THERE FROM JACKIE SANDERS. WEKIVA CHEERLEADERS TRYING TO GET THE HOME TEAM GOING BUT NOT SURE THIS IS WHAT THEY WANTED. JACKSON KELLER EVADES THE PRESSURE, MAKES THE PASS, BUT INTO THE HANDS OF APOPKA. HENRY PICKARD. IT GOES. INTERCEPTION FOR APOPKA. BIG PLAY BY THE DEFENSE MEETS. BIG PLAY BY THE OFFENSE. TYSON DAVISON DROPS A BEAUTY HERE TO ALEXANDER ROSSI FOR THE SCORE. WEKIVA FIGHTS BACK BUT CAN’T CATCH APOPKA IN THE END. 20 TO 16 IS THE FINAL. WELL THEY SHARE A STADIUM AND A SIMILAR APPRECIATION FOR EACH OTHER. SEABREEZE AND MAINLAND MEETING IN DAYTONA BEACH. THIRD PLAY OF THE GAME SEABREEZE GOING LONG. KWASI KWAKU JUNIOR PICKS IT OFF AND LOOK AT HIM. JUST TAKE HIS TIME. WEAVES HIS WAY BACK 76 YARDS ALL THE WAY TO THE HOUSE. EIGHT GETS SIX. MAINLAND UP SIX TO NOTHING. MAINLAND’S FIRST OFFENSIVE POSSESSION WOULD END IN SIMILAR FASHION. THEY’LL TOSS IT UP HERE. SEBASTIAN JOHNSON TO JAMIL PATRICK FOR 30 YARDS AND A TOUCHDOWN 13 NOTHING 20 NOTHING. BUCKS. IN THE SECOND QUARTER, THE BAND PLENTY TO DANCE ABOUT CHRISTIAN COOPER REELING IN A TOUCHDOWN HERE IN YOUR LIVING ROOM. BUT PRIDE NEVER DIES. AND THEY DON’T ALLOW POINTS EITHER. 53 TO NOTHING.

HERE THEY COME. BIG RUN FROM TANNER WEARING FIVE THOUGH WOULD GET SHOVED OUT AT THE FIVE YARD LINE SOON AFTER THOUGH MOUNT DORA WOULD GET IN THE END ZONE THROUGH THE AIR. HURRICANES TRYING TO GET BACK INTO THIS ONE WITH THE VILLAGES CHARTER WOULD ANSWER PATRICK HARDING WILL FIND AMARI HILL IN FOR A LONG TOUCHDOWN. AND GET THIS THE BUFFALO BETTER BY A POINT TONIGHT. EVERY POINT MATTERS. 2726 THE FINAL SCORE SCORES FROM AROUND THE AREA. WINDERMERE PULLS OFF A PERFECT SEASON IN OVERTIME OVER HORIZON 13 SEVEN THE FINAL. THERE WINTER PARK GETS PAST OLYMPIA 2117.

Take a look at some Central Florida high school football highlights from this Friday, Nov. 1.

Previous recaps:

IT IS WEEK FIVE. HELLO, EVERYBODY. ALONGSIDE KRISTEN LAGO, I AM DAREN STOLZFUS. WHAT A NIGHT FOR SOME HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL. GORGEOUS WEATHER. NO RAIN, NOT TOO HOT, BEAUTIFUL SUNSET. AND SOME FANTASTIC FOOTBALL. I THINK IT’S BECAUSE MARQUISE WAS IN AND NOT TONY TONY. THANK YOU MARQUISE. YEAH, THIS IS WHAT WE HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR IN WEEK FIVE. WE’RE ESSENTIALLY HALFWAY THROUGH THE REGULAR SEASON. IT’S CRAZY AND WE’RE STARTING TO SEE WHO COULD BE A CONTENDER AND WHO MAYBE JUST ISN’T QUITE THERE YET. YEAH, THERE’S STILL TIME THOUGH. OUR GAME OF THE WEEK JUST DOWN THE ROAD IN COLLEGE PARK, AN ALL ORANGE COUNTY CLASH, EDGEWATER HOSTING APOPKA. I LIKE IT. EDGEWATER JUST TWO AND TWO. THEY WENT UNBEATEN THROUGH THE REGULAR SEASON THE LAST TWO YEARS. ENTERING THE NIGHT, STILL TRYING TO FIGURE THINGS OUT. BUT APOPKA, THE BLUE DARTERS DEFENSE CLEARLY THEIR CALLING CARD. THEY’VE ONLY ALLOWED SIX POINTS THROUGH FOUR GAMES SO FAR THIS SEASON. YEAH, JUST AROUND THE CORNER FROM WESH TWO STUDIOS THAT TREND THAT WOULD CHANGE TONIGHT. THAT’S BECAUSE THE PLAY OF THIS MAN CARTER EMMANUEL FIRST QUARTER HE FINDS HIMSELF HE CALLS HIS OWN NUMBER GOES UP THE MIDDLE. EAGLES QUICKLY ON TOP. YEAH. ALREADY GIVING UP MORE THAN SIX POINTS THERE. HE WASN’T CLOSE TO DONE. STILL IN THE FIRST QUARTER EMMANUEL AGAIN MISSES SOME GUYS. AND JUST LIKE THAT APOPKA IS DOWN 14. NOTHING AFTER ONE QUARTER OF PLAY EMMANUEL SHOWING HE CAN DO IT WITH HIS ARM AS WELL. THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE DIME TO SEMAJ FLEMING. IN THE END ZONE. LOOK AT THAT PERFECT STRIKE. MAKES IT 28. NOTHING. EAGLES AT THE HALF SECONDS. LEFT TO PLAY. NICE RUN FROM CHRISTIAN HENDERSON TO GET THAT RUNNING CLOCK 35. NOTHING. WOW. EDGEWATER IS FLYING FROM OUR GAME OF THE WEEK. IT IS ZACH MASKAVICH ZACH. HEY THERE DARREN AND CHRISTINE, WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT POWERHOUSE PROGRAMS IN CENTRAL FLORIDA, YOU’D BE HARD PRESSED TO FIND TWO BETTER THAN EDGEWATER AND APOPKA, ESPECIALLY IN THE REGULAR SEASON OVER THE LAST FEW YEARS. BUT TONIGHT HERE IN ORLANDO WAS THE EDGEWATER EAGLES THAT CAME SCORCHING OUT OF THE GATES. THE BLUE DARTERS HAD GIVEN UP JUST SIX COMBINED POINTS. THE ENTIRE SEASON. EDGEWATER HANGS 28 POINTS IN THE FIRST HALF, 35 IN THE GAME, THANKS TO CARTER EMMANUEL’S FOUR TOTAL TOUCHDOWNS THREE ON THE GROUND, ONE THROUGH THE AIR. I’D SAY THE EDGEWATER EAGLES BOUNCE BACK QUITE NICELY FROM LAST WEEK’S LOSS TO JONES. WE KNEW IT WAS GOING TO BE TOUGH SLEDDING AND I THOUGHT WE DID SOME GOOD STUFF IN FIELD POSITION EARLY ON AND BE ABLE TO, YOU KNOW, GET A FEW SCORES THERE EARLY AND ANYTIME YOU WIN AGAINST THE POP COMMAND, YOU’LL TAKE IT. I MEAN, WE WERE EXPECTING TO PUT UP SOME POINTS. WE HAVE A GREAT EXPLOSIVE OFFENSE AND WE CAME UP WITH A GREAT GAME PLAN. OUR COACHES SET IT UP. SET US UP. WELL YEAH IT WAS REALLY JUST PUTTING PRESSURE ON THEM AND TAKE IT OFF OF US SO THAT THEY’RE GOING TO HAVE TO DEAL WITH IT AND AND WE’LL KEEP, KEEP JUST SCORING AND SCORING AND DOING WHAT WE DO. SO CAM DUKES SQUAD IS OVER 500 AT THREE AND TWO ON THE YEAR. NEXT WEEK THEY HIT THE ROAD. THEY WILL TAKE ON THE LYMAN GREYHOUNDS. MEANWHILE, JEFF ROSSEN SQUAD FALLS TO THREE AND TWO ON THE SEASON. THEY TAKE ON WEST ORANGE COMING UP NEXT WEEK FROM OUR GAME OF THE WEEK AT EDGEWATER HIGH SCHOOL. ZACH MASKAVICH WESH TWO SPORTS. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU ZACH. OUR FAN PICK POLL WINNER. AN INTRIGUING MATCHUP OUT IN BREVARD COUNTY. A BATTLE OF UNBEATENS FOR NO UNIVERSITY. ORANGE CITY HEADING TO THE COAST TO BATTLE FOUR ZERO O’GALLEY. I LOVE A BATTLE OF UNBEATENS. NOW, THERE WAS A REASON NEARLY 65% OF THE VOTERS ON WESH.COM WANTED TO GET THIS GAME. AND WANTED TO HAVE THEM GET A LITTLE EXTRA SHINE TONIGHT. O’GALLEY THE NUMBER 15 TEAM IN THE STATE ACCORDING TO MAXPREPS UNIVERSITY OC WITH A BIG OPPORTUNITY TO GAIN SOME RESPECT TONIGHT. FIRST QUARTER IT IS TAY WELSH BURSTING THROUGH THE HOLE, CUTS BACK AND TAKES IT TO THE HOUSE. 28 YARD TOUCHDOWN. JUST LIKE THAT. THEY ARE UP SEVEN. ZIP BUT NOT DONE YET. TAY WELSH AGAIN THIS TIME CATCHES IT IN THE FLAT AND THEN MUSCLES IN FROM 18 OUT TO PUT THE HOME TEAM UP 14. TITANS NOWHERE TO HIDE ON THIS PLAY. O’GALLEY SENIOR BRANDON BROWN BIG SACK FOR THE BIG MAN. BUT HOW ABOUT THIS NEXT PLAY? BIG BRANDON BROWN, ARE YOU READY? A BIG MAN PICK SIX. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? HE’S HAVING THE GAME OF HIS LIFE TONIGHT. O’GALLEY GETTING THE JOB DONE. COMMODORES WILL TAKE IT 40 TO 7. THAT IS THE FINAL BIG MAN TOUCHDOWN UP IN SANFORD.

HOW ABOUT LITTLE BRO GETTING IT DONE ON FRIDAY? I DIDN’T ACTUALLY CATCH THE CATCH AS I WAS FAKED OUT BY JACK BEYER, BUT LOOK AT THE FINISH. BOONE UP BY SEVEN IN THE FIRST QUARTER. THE KNIGHTS NOT BACKING DOWN THOUGH A LITTLE LATER ON JEROME DUPREE HANDS OFF TO JAMARION ROBINSON WHO BURSTS RIGHT THROUGH THE HOLE AND HE IS GONE. OCOEE RUSHING BACK TO TAKE THE LEAD NOW. BOONE MADE THIS A GAME AT THE HALF. IT WAS A TIE SCORE, BUT IT IS OCOEE WHO COMES OUT ON TOP 3531. THAT’S THE FINAL WATCH OUT FOR OCOEE. ALL RIGHT. IN THE SHADOWS OF UNIVERSAL STUDIOS, AN EPIC CLASH BETWEEN UNDEFEATED DOCTOR PHILLIPS AND NEARLY UNDEFEATED LAKE MARY. I LIKE THE THEME PARK, SORT OF RIDING THERE. DAREN. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT, THE PANTHERS, I LIKE IT. THE PANTHERS TRYING TO PROVE THEY’RE THE REAL DEAL. DP HAD ONLY ALLOWED TEN POINTS ALL SEASON. HARD TO FIND A BETTER TEST THAN THE HIGH FLYING OFFENSE FROM THE RAMS. ALL RIGHT, RAMS COMING OFF A BYE WEEK AND JUST LOST IN OT TO LAKELAND. TONIGHT THEY VISIT THE PANTHERS.

BUT HERE COME THE ROYALS SOLOMON GEORGE’S HANDS OFF TO JALEN POWELL FOR THE EASY TD. FIRST ACADEMY COMES BACK WITH A VENGEANCE. ROYALS 4128. BIG WIN FOR TFA. SO LAKE BUENA VISTA THE VIPERS WERE HOSTING WEST ORANGE TONIGHT AND WHEN A GAME STARTS OUT LIKE THIS YOU KNOW IT JUST MAY NOT BE YOUR NIGHT. OR MAYBE IT IS.

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. THIS ONE ACTUALLY MOVED UP TO 4:00 IN THE AFTERNOON TO BEAT THE WEATHER. THOSE ARE SOME SMART PEOPLE AT ORANGEWOOD CHRISTIAN AT THE FIRST RUNNING BACK FIRED UP AUGUSTINE FRED AUGUSTINE WITH THE TOUCHDOWN. THEY GO FOR TWO. THEY GET IT. TREY ROACH TO JAKE CARTER. RAMS UP 24 SEVEN ON WINDERMERE PREP. MORE FOR THE RAMS JACKSON HUDSPETH TAKES IT INTO THE END ZONE. ORANGEWOOD CHRISTIAN GETS A NICE WIN OVER WINDERMERE PREP 38 TO 7. THE FINAL SCORE. ALL RIGHT CHRISTIAN IT WAS AN INTERESTING NIGHT. HERE’S SOME MORE SCORES. HAGERTY THE HUSKIES TAKING DOWN THE TOHOPEKALIGA TIGERS 26 TO 14. WHILE THE GATEWAY PANTHERS ESCAPE.
