c withstood a l rally earlier than pulling away for a 42-27 victory Thursday night time in Belle Glade.
The Rams improved to 2-0 on the younger 2026 FHSAA season, whereas the Raiders fell to 0-2.
John Carroll constructed a two-possession lead late within the first half, however Glades Central responded with scores on both aspect of halftime to tug inside one possession and briefly shift momentum.
The Rams answered behind senior working again Felix Jackson.
Jackson sparked a pivotal third-quarter drive with an extended breakaway run earlier than ending it himself with a speeding landing to revive respiratory room. He later delivered the sport's greatest play, pulling up on a reverse and connecting with junior Donevon Richardson for an extended landing move that helped seal the win.
John Carroll's protection took over down the stretch. The Rams recorded a number of sacks within the fourth quarter and junior Kameron Barber added a late interception because the guests closed out the victory.
The Rams now flip their consideration to a marquee Sept. 4 matchup in opposition to defending Class 1A state champion Cardinal Newman (1-0) in Fort Pierce. Glades Central will search its first win when it visits Palm Seaside Gardens on Sept. 4.
