It's hard to turn regular season success into postseason wins, a fact the Longview Lobos can now relate to. They fell just short of the Tigers by a score of 27-24. Longview's defeat signaled the end of their 11-game winning streak.
When it comes to explaining why Longview lost on Friday, one person who can't be blamed is Kelvin Washington. Despite the final result, he rushed for 97 yards and a touchdown.
Longview's defeat dropped their record down to 11-2. As for Lancaster, they are on a roll lately: they've won eight of their last nine matchups, which provided a massive bump to their 9-5 record this season.
Longview does not have any more games scheduled as of now. Lancaster is on the road again on Friday and play against Forney at 7:00 p.m. on December 1st. Forney's defense has only allowed 14.2 points per game this season, so Lancaster's offense will have their work cut out for Lancaster.
