By CHRIS MAYER Contributing Writer

The high school varsity football season has progressed similar to that of a long roller coaster ride. Injuries and pandemic-related attrition not only caused starts and stops for area teams, but they have also been largely responsible for any ups and downs. But a few final twists and turns aside, the cars are nearing a return to the station. Postseason play-in games kicked off last week – Auburndale’s successful trip to Port St. Lucie in Class 6A-Region 3 being one of them – while the playoff schedule continues Friday (Nov. 13) in all eight Florida High School Athletic Association classifications. As for teams that opted out of the 2020 state series or hold independent status (Haines City, Lake Region, Discovery and Akelynn’s Angels Christian Academy), they have completed the majority of their season. Auburndale built an early lead against Port St. Lucie en route to its fourth victory of the year. The Bloodhounds (4-3), who earned a 38-28 decision over the Jaguars as Zach Tanner and Cam Sowder combined to throw three touchdown passes and Anthony Alls rushed for 100 yards and one score, earned a spot in the Region 3 quarterfinals opposite host Tampa King (5-3).

The Bartow High football program has had quite the turnaround over the past three seasons, capped by a decisive win over Lake Wales in the Yellow Jackets’ regular season finale Nov. 6. Bartow topped Lake Wales 42-10 on the road, completing the regular season with a perfect 8-0 record. Just two seasons ago, in 2018, the Yellow Jackets went 0-10. In 2019 Bartow went 5-5. Both teams will now prepare for playoff action on Friday, Nov. 13.

Page 32 November 11, 2020 BECOMING A CENTER OF EXCELLENCE IS PRECISELY THE POINT.

The surgeons at Bartow Regional Medical Center are experts in performing gynecologic and general robotic procedures using the da Vinci® Surgical System. And we’re accredited as a Center of Excellence by the Surgical Review Corporation for practicing the gold standard of robotic surgery. This award distinguishes Bartow Regional Medical Center from other hospitals by showing that we meet nationally recognized standards and provide the highest quality of care to our patients. Additionally, we help keep our patients, team members and physicians safe by encouraging social distancing and using face masks in our facilities. Robotic surgery gives patients lots of beneﬁts including shorter hospital stays, reduced blood loss and smaller incisions, which reduces the risk of infection. Plus, faster recovery times which means you can get back to your normal activities sooner. And that’s pretty excellent. Learn more: RediscoverBartow.org
