Lane Sceals Delivers Best Effort of Season
On Friday, Deerfield-Windsor got the W thanks in part to Lane Sceals playing the best football he has all season. Sceals threw for 421 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 12.0 yards per attempt.
Sceals and Deerfield-Windsor will venture away from home to square off against Maclay at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. The Knights got just the result they wanted when they last faced the Marauders, probably because Sceals had a solid game then too: he threw for 151 yards and three touchdowns. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
