Dragons Gain Victory in First Playoff Game of the Season

11/3/2023 2:46:00 PM

"The playoffs. It's something we watch on TV growing up, but to now experience success in the playoffs is thrilling and leaves us wanting more!" said Head Coach Eric Lefors.

FSDB managed to build a comfortable lead and start a running clock early in the 3rd quarter to emerge victorious 38-16 over City of Life Christian Academy (Kissimmee) in the 2A SSAA 8-man playoffs.

The offensive line earns high praise for last night's performance, especially with making adjustments after the first series. Defensively, our Dragons had an excellent execution in containing the opponent's #1 receiver. Roud Valcin intercepted two passes! Our backups and underclassmen got ample playing time on both sides of the ball.
  
Since FSDB is the #1 seed in our bracket, our boys will play at HOME on Thursday, 11/9. The opponent is yet to be announced. The Dragons will face the winner of tonight's game of Eastland Christian vs. Oasis Christian.
