Friday night at Legion Stadium in Lake Wales good ole fashion ground and pound wore out the Highlanders 28-17. The Kowboys have the most impressive offensive line that I’ve witnessed this year. The center and guards are all stout and powerful but the tackles are a sight to see at the high school level. Connor Howes is the 6’6” 315 lb. senior left tackle and Marcus Ferrier is the 6’6” 300 lb. junior right tackle. Osceola runs the single wing. Anybody that has ever seen them play over the last few decades knows this is what they run. They pass when they have to or at the right time to surprise. In general I do not prefer to watch a run heavy team but to watch the Kowboys pound a quality team like Lake Wales into submission was imposing. I have to admit it was enjoyable to watch. Silver King, you would love it.
