The Jackets played their third consecutive game on the road in Friday's win against St. Cloud. They went 2-1 on the trip, they will be home Friday night against Minneola Lake Minneola High School. After Friday's game they will again go on the road for two straight weeks against Bushnell South Sumter 5-1 (1-0) and Orlando Maynard Evans 5-0 (1-0). Evans is ranked #14 in the Orlando Sentinel Super 16 High School Football Poll. South Sumter is on the Super 16 Watch List and received votes in the Class 4A Top 10 poll.

I Backs senior Emmanuel Nelson and junior Anthony Miller are banged up. Both left Friday's game with undisclosed injuries, their status is questionable for Friday's game against Minneola Lake Minneola High School.



Junior OLB/TE Jordan Tucker is making big plays for the Jackets. In the game against Clermont East Ridge he returned a fumble 68 yards just short of the goal line at the 3 yard line. He got another opportunity to score against St. Cloud, he reached the end zone after picking up a block punt by senior safety Zac Mahan and returning it 25 yards for a second half touchdown. Tucker's score was the only touchdown of the second half for the Jackets.

Under Armour High School All-American Noor Davis missed his third consecutive game Friday night in St. Cloud. Doctors have cleared him to return to practice. Davis status for Friday's Homecoming matchup against Lake Minneola is probable.

The Jackets were out done offensively by the Bulldogs. St. Cloud had 420 yards total offense, Leesburg had 277. For the second week in a row the "Black Jackets" defense allowed a back to rush for over 100 yards, Eric Pfeifer’s (10-116, 1 TD). The defense had a better second half only allowing the Bulldogs one touchdown after halftime.

St. Cloud senior quarterback Phillip Steinmetz  went 12-32-264 and 3 TDs in the game.

Senior running back Emmanuel Nelson (24-132, 1 TD) had his fourth 100 yard rushing game of the season.
