Game of the Week: Lighthouse vs. Christ Prep

Top ranked Lighthouse Christian comes to town to play #7 Christ Prep in the game of the week among 11-man homeschooled teams around the nation tomorrow night at 8pm at Blue Valley West High School (162nd & Antioch).  CPA is coming off back to back shutouts with victories over Jayhawk-Linn and Sunrise Christian.  Lighthouse has won four in a row to bring their season record to 8-2.  The Chargers have an impressive win 13-7 over Tulsa NOAH.

It will be Senior Night for some fine young men:  Clark Bee, Matt Dawdy, Regan Hurley, Steven Maloy, Levi Mann, Cameron Rucker, David "Double D" Schilling, Noah Stegner, and Davis White.

Here's how the two teams match up but the long and short of it is that on paper Lighthouse is a two touchdown favorite.
