Flowery Branch battles back for 30-20 win at Apalachee

WINDER — The Apalachee football team may have played its best single half of football this entire season Friday against Region 8-AAAAA standout Flowery Branch. But a single half of dominant play doesn’t equal a win, and the Wildcats found that out the hard way when the Falcons roared back from halftime deficit to win 30-20 at R. Harold Harrison Sports Complex in Winder. Apalachee (1-4, 0-3 Region 8-AAAAA) led 14-3 at halftime and held Flowery Branch (4-2, 4-0 Region 8-AAAAA) to just 86 total yards of offense, but the Falcons punched it in four rushing touchdowns to make up for a sluggish first half and win their fourth straight after an 0-2 start to the season.
