On Friday Celebration will have to hit the road after three straight games at home. They will venture away from home to challenge the Gateway Panthers at 7:00 p.m. Celebration hasn't scored more than nine points for three games straight, a trend the team is eager to reverse.
Celebration is headed into the game having just suffered their biggest defeat since October 27, 2023 last Thursday. They were dealt a 40-9 loss at the hands of Dr. Phillips. While losing is never fun, the Storm can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Florida football rankings (they are ranked 441st, while the Panthers are ranked 52nd).
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Gateway). They secured a 40-34 W over Lake Placid on Monday.
Celebration's defeat dropped their record down to 2-7. As for Gateway, their win bumped their record up to 4-5.
Celebration strolled past Gateway in their previous meeting back in November of 2021 by a score of 35-21. The rematch might be a little tougher for Celebration since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
