George Jenkins is seven games into its season, but it hasn't met anyone harder than the team challenging it this week. It and Lake Gibson go head to head this Friday at 7:30 PM. George Jenkins has seen its point totals steadily rise over the past four games, a trend the team will no doubt hope to continue.
George Jenkins brought some tenacious defense (the best it has had all year) into its match. The final score between it and Haines City last week was a 35 - 0 blowout in George Jenkins's favor. That marks its first win on the road this year.
Meanwhile, even if it wasn't a dominant performance, Lake Gibson beat Auburndale 14 - 7 last week. No one had a larger role in the success than junior running back Travell Jones, who brought his A game into the contest. He ran for 87 yards and punched in one touchdown. Jones has now scored at least one TD in the past six consecutive games.
Their wins bumped George Jenkins to 1-5 and Lake Gibson to 6-0. We'll find out which team can carry over its success and which team inevitably falls when George Jenkins and Lake Gibson clash.
