If Gatewood wanted to avenge their loss from the last time they played Briarwood Academy, they should've done a better job of containing Cutler Fleming. The Buccaneers walked away with a 23-14 win over the Gators on Friday with plenty of help from Fleming, who rushed for 188 yards and one score, and also threw for 139 yards and a pair of touchdowns. He was no stranger to the big play, taking off on a dash that went for 58 yards.
Gatewood's loss shouldn't obscure the performances of Sean Bennett, who rushed for 81 yards and one TD on only 11 carries, and Brady Haley, who rushed for 68 yards and one touchdown on only nine carries.
