The regular season was a success, but the real challenge begins now, in the postseason. On Friday Lamar will take on Atkins at 7:00 PM. The teams both have allowed few points on average (Lamar 15.9, Atkins 15.5), so any points scored will be well earned.
After a sunny season, Lamar have been experiencing darker times in their latest games. They ended up on the wrong side of a painful 6-31 walloping at Charleston's hands. Lamar were down by 6-31 at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from.
Last Thursday, Atkins put the finishing touches on their sixth blowout victory of the season. They claimed a resounding 42-0 victory over Two Rivers. That 42-point margin sets a new personal best for Atkins on the season.
Atkins's win lifted them to 7-3 while Lamar's loss dropped them down to 8-2. In Atkins's win, junior Elijah Roberson threw 3 TDs and senior Gage Rehm rushed for 70 yards and 1 touchdown on 4 carries. We'll see if Lamar have a strategy for dealing with them or if they lead their team to another successful outing.
