Lancaster 62 George Wythe 40 Final

GW made it a game early
GW is a very young team. They start like 4 sophomores and only had one senior on the team. They'll be back again next year. Auburn also returns a big portion of their team. I know Lancaster has a bunch of seniors, but they do return Troy Henderson and their jv team only lost one game this season
 
Next year will be a good season as well
Yes it will be. After basketball season, I usually go into hibernation on here. I follow spring sports, but I'm not into them like I am football, basketball and wrestling
 
And the refs tried to keep GW in the game too. Two games in a row with bad refs. What can be done?
