The LCM/BC match up between two undefeated district teams was worth the hype as they met at Battlin Bear Stadium.
LCM would punch it in first on a Jonah Fuller 5 yd. run and a Isaiah Watzlavik kick. The two went back and forth until the Cards looked like they would tie it near the end of the second quarter when QB Hutch Bearden went out at the one. But a holding call brought it back and BC had to settle for a Kasen Watts 27 yd. FG to make it 7-3 at the half.
In the third, LCM punted from midfield and the ball bounced off the helmet of Cardinal inside the 10 yd. line and rolled into the end zone where the Bears Dreyden Cook fell on it for six points. Watzlavik made it 14-3.
The Cardinals would comeback quickly as Ashton Sumrall scored from 39 out and a Bearden to Austin Bellanger 2pt. conversion cut the lead to three, 14-11. The Cards would get the ball in the fourth and it was Bearden to Bellanger again, this time from 32 yds, and the Cards took their first lead at 18-14.
But the lead would not last as LCM drove down the field and Braylon Lewis hit Evan Worster (above) from 11 yds. and the kick made it 21-18. BC had one last shot but the Bears would sack Bearden twice and the Cards (7-1, 4-1) ran out of downs and suffered their first defeat of the season. LCM (6-2, 5-0) would post their sixth straight win and will travel to 8-0 Huffman. BC will travel to Liberty.
