Warner Robins unfortunately couldn't capitalize on their home-field advantage in their season opener. They were dealt a 45-7 defeat at the hands of the Lee County Trojans on Friday. The Demons lost against the Trojans in their previous head to head back in August of 2024, too, but the margin this time around was even wider than the 45-28 score last time.
Lee County got their victory on the backs of several key players, but it was Carter Blackwell out in front who picked up 49 receiving yards and a pair of scores. The dominant performance also gave Blackwell a new career-high in receiving touchdowns (two). Another back making a difference was Canton Williams, who rushed for 61 yards and one touchdown on only five carries.
