Lee County kicked off their season on the road on Friday and hit a couple of potholes. They had to suffer through a 37-7 loss at the hands of the Hunt Warriors. The Yellow Jackets lost against the Warriors in their previous head to head back in November of 2015, too, but the margin this time around was even wider than the 7-3 score last time.
When it comes to explaining why Lee County lost, don't look at Javonte Randall. Despite the final result, he picked up 93 receiving yards and one score. Randall showed off some serious burst, connecting on a big catch for 59 yards.
Even if they lost, Lee County's defensive line still kept up the pressure with three sacks. Daniel Prince was especially locked on to Hunt's QB and sacked him twice. Cody Graham was another major factor on D, making ten total tackles (2.0 for loss).
Both squads will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. Lee County will head out to challenge Apex Friendship at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. As for Hunt, they are packing up and heading out for their first away game of the season: they will face off against Tarboro at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday.
