Patriots to Conclude Season Against Lighthouse Christian

The Christ  Prep Patriots conclude their 2010 campaign tomorrow against the Lighthouse Christian Academy Chargers in a 1:30 p.m. contest to be held at Pleasant Hope High School in Pleasant Hope, Mo.

The Chargers are 5-5 on the season so obviously are looking for a victory so that they can finish with a winning season. Christ Prep, although assured of a winning season, seeks to improve to 7-3 with a road win.

Both teams have been fairly evenly matched over the last couple of years. Lighthouse won 50-36 against the Patriots in 2008 during a home contest held at Willard High School. Last year, CPA got revenge by edging the Chargers 24-21 with a Darren Wallace field goal in overtime.  Needless to say emotions will run high tomorrow as the two teams have developed an important  rivalry over the last few years.

Although the varsity contest starts at 1:30 p.m., a junior high game between the two schools will be held prior to the varsity matchup. The starting time for that game is set for 11:30 a.m. at the Pleasant Hope field.

Pleasant Hope is located about 4 miles east of Missouri 13 Highway on Route 215. Route 215 is located about 10-12 miles south of Bolivar, Mo.
