Lakeland Christian wasn't able to find success on the road in its prior game, but the return home seemed to do it good. Even if it wasn't a dominant performance, it beat Avon Park 35 - 28 last week. Lakeland Christian struggled to find the scoreboard the game before, so the high-scoring effort was a welcome change of pace.
Lakeland Christian got off to a good start with a 28-point offensive effort in the first half. That gave them a 28 - 14 advantage at the half. Lakeland Christian was outscored 14 to seven in the second half but capitalized on its first-half cushion.
Despite the defeat, Avon Park won't want to forget the exciting 79-yard TD scramble from senior Montrae Braswell in the fourth quarter.
Avon Park's record fell to 6-1 after the loss. The win got Lakeland Christian up to 7-1.
