Suggested Video




Palm Beach Lakes and Forest Hill are an even 3-3 against one another since October of 2014, but not for long. The Palm Beach Lakes Rams will take on the Forest Hill Falcons at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday. Keep an eye on the score for this one: both posted some lofty point totals in their previous games.

While Rams fans will have to keep waiting for their team to come home, they shouldn't be too worried about the road trip considering the result of Friday's season opener. They blew past Coral Springs, posting a 41-13 victory on the road.

This one was won in the trenches and the lion's share of the credit has to go to Anthony Palmer and he. Palmer gained 132 total yards and two touchdowns while he gained 132 total yards and two touchdowns. Christopher Holmes's longest rush was for an incredible 80 yards. Quentin Williams was another key player, throwing for 99 yards and two touchdowns while completing 75% of his passes.

Meanwhile, Forest Hill took care of business in their home opener on Friday (and then some). They never let Leonard onto the board and left with a 44-0 win. The game was all but wrapped up at the end of the third, by which point the Falcons had established a 36 point advantage.

Among those leading the charge was Josiah Hansen, who rushed for 79 yards and a touchdown on only seven carries.

Hansen wasn't the only one working in the rushing yards department: Forest Hill was unstoppable on the ground and finished the game with 278 rushing yards. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Leonard only rushed for 45.

Forest Hill wouldn't let Leonard keep a hold of the ball as they managed to force two fumbles. Forest Hill can thank Joseph Floreal and Ernest Jones for forcing both of them.

Palm Beach Lakes and Forest Hill were neck-and-neck when the teams last played back in November of 2020, but Palm Beach Lakes came up empty-handed after a 27-26 defeat. Thankfully for Palm Beach Lakes, Jalen Jeter (who rushed for 150 yards and two touchdowns, and also threw for 171 yards and a touchdown on only 14 passes) won't be suiting up this time. Will that be enough to change the final result? Check MaxPreps.com after the match to find out.
