Lakeview Academy's Jerrod Abee, right, reaches out to haul in a pass as Riverside's Antonio Copeland gives chase Friday night during the first half of their game at Jock Hornor Field.
Like its season, Lakeview Academy started out slow on Friday night against Riverside Military Academy but finished strong in all three phases to win 24-14. The Lions closed the season with back-to-back victories on their home turf of Jock Hornor Field in Gainesville. In a first-time meeting of two Region 8-A programs, the Lions (3-7, 3-6 Region 8-A) dominated the game clock for the majority of the first half, and capitalized on Eagle misfortunes to stay ahead.
