High school football.
The first round of the playoffs kicked off today and one of the
biggest games at Seminole High School taking on Lake Brantley.
Playoff chance, Playoff Chancellor win. Live on the sidelines.
Undefeated season alive. How'd they do?
I'm not going to bury the lead. They did.
They kept their undefeated season alive.
They move on after an undefeated regular season.
They open the playoffs with a chaotic win.
I mean, there were turnovers. There were big plays.
There was anything you could imagine
in a football game happened right here tonight on the football field.
Take a look at just some of the highlights.
Playoff football, one seed Seminole High hosting eight
seed Lake Brantley, and these teams put on a show.
Lake Brantley getting on the board first,
junior quarterback Jackson Stecker looking downfield, even while
This guy plays Madden, but he is a cheat code.
Waltzes into the end zone.
Big response by the Seminoles.
First play of the second quarter.
Stecker rolls right.
Quick pass to junior wide receiver Elijah Thomas.
Touchdown, 14-7 Patriots.
Junior quarterback Daniel Proenze not worried, though.
He just lobs one up to senior wide receiver
Cameron Roberts for the touchdown.
We're tied again, 14-all.
Until this deep shot by Stecker.
A moon ball to, you guessed it,
Junior wide receiver Elijah Thomas,
who catches it in stride for his second touchdown on the night.
Knowles fighting from behind again.
Proenze rolls right, pump fakes, keeps the play alive
as he scrambles through traffic and dives into the end zone.
He deserves to do a little bit of celebrating after that play.
Under two minutes left in the half and big 99 King Manley says,
don't worry, Knowles.
He gets the sack on third down, forcing the Patriots to punt.
Not a great kick, it's a short punt,
and the ball even starts bouncing around on the
grass, and who else picks it up but Caden Pierce-Flores.
A little shake, a little bake, and a big play.
Pierce-Flores into the end zone,
putting the Seminoles on top for the first time in the
game.
Now, the Seminoles go on to win 50-36, all types of scoring out here.
We just actually spoke to the head coach,
and he says they're not celebrating, they're
already looking forward to next week.
With playoff football, you win, you go home.
You win, you go on.
You lose, you go home.
And we just found out seconds ago that Lake Mary beat Creekside,
which means Seminole High School is going
to face off against Lake Mary next week.
Winner advances.
Loser goes home.
But for now, the big news tonight
is that Seminole High School won again.
They're undefeated to continue this season as they push forward,
looking ahead to see if they can make a state championship run.
But for now, reporting live, I'm Chancellor Nguyen, Fox 35 News.
