Week 3 of high school football has Friday games scheduled tonight, but weather got in the way for awhile as storms roll through Central Florida. Rain won’t always force postponements or stoppages — but lightning in the vicinity does.

Conditions got better as the storms moved up the I-4 corridor towards the Atlantic Ocean.

Tonight’s slate has 10 Sentinel Super 16 teams playing at home. And the No. 3 Jones at No. 8 Evans “Soul Bowl” rivalry game is set for 4 p.m. Saturday. Before Friday, there was one makeup game on Monday and three Thursday night games.

Check below for live in-game updates.

No. 15 Osceola at No 5 Lake Mary

Coverage by Ken Jackson

TOUCHDOWN: Osceola opened the third quarter with a 66-yard run, and two plays later scored from the 1 to up its lead to 17-0 over Lake Mary with 10: 46 left in the third quarter.

Osceola opens the second half with the ball at the 20 after a touchback with a 10-0 lead over Lake Mary.

It’s Osceola 10, Lake Mary 0 at the half after Brayden Buehler missed a field try of 44 yards to close the quarter. The Kowboy defense has held the Rams offense to five yards of offense on just 15 snaps. Osceola had just 82 yards of its own on 22 snaps, 20 coming on the ground for 72 of them.

TOUCHDOWN: The Omar Davis’ pick set up a dramatic score. On a 29-yard field goal attempt, Osceola holder Jose Rivera corralled a high snap, ran to his left, evaded two Lake Mary tacklers and scored from 12 yards out. Brayden Buehler’s traditional PAT makes it a 10-0 Kowboy lead with 4:44 left in the first half.

Osceola’s Amir Davis intercepted a pass by Lake Mary QB Remy Jarman and returned it to the Lake Mary 15 yard line.

FIELD GOAL: After a 13-yard run by Zylin Garrett on third-and-7 kept the Kowboy drive alive, Brayden Buehler atoned for his earlier miss by drilling a 50-yard field goal to give Osceola a 3-0 lead with 8:22 left in the second quarter.

Osceola and Lake Mary are scoreless after one quarter. The Kowboys will have the ball at midfield to start the second quarter.

After Osceola free safety Dorian Wright intercepted a pass by Lake Mary quarterback Remy Jarman and returned it to the Rams 37, it stays scoreless. Kowboys kicker Brayden Buehler’s 30-yard field goal was wide right with 5:08 left in the first quarter.

And we’ve kicked off in Lake Mary. The Rams start with the ball against Osceola after a two-hour lightning delay that gave us a beautiful rainbow prior to sunset.

Teams and fans are inside Don Reynolds Stadium in anticipation of a 9 p.m. kickoff.

Players are now entering the stadium for the warm-up. Start time should be around 8:55.

Game time was 7 p.m., but this one is delayed due to stormy weather.

PRE-GAME NOTES:

Lake Mary (1-0) rallied to top the Kowboys 17-12 in Kissimmee last year on the way to its 2025 state championship. The Rams are 4-0 against Osceola since 2013 with three very close games.

TOUCHDOWN: Bishop Moore’s Justin Dewitt intercepted MCC’s Trenton Washington near midfield to set the Hornets up with a short field.

TOUCHDOWN: A bad snap forced MCC into a fourth and 20 and gave Bishop Moore a short field after a 27-yard punt. The Hornets score quickly with a three-play drive capped off with a 10-yard touchdown run from Deuce Bronson. Bishop Moore can’t handle the snap on the PAT and Matthew Sullivan’s pass to Drew Follett is incomplete. Bishop Moore leads Melbourne Central Catholic 15-0 with 1:17 left in the first quarter.

FIELD GOAL: Bishop Moore got to the three on a 47-yard pass from Blake McCullough to Magnus Talma. But they had their second touchdown of the game taken off the board by a penalty and settled for a 26-yard field goal by Nico Salas. Bishop Moore leads Melbourne Central Catholic 9-0 with 3:27 left in the first quarter.

On a Melbourne Central Catholic punt, Bishop Moore’s Matthew Sullivan got sprung for a long return by a teammate’s blindside block on MCC’s Jayden Asan. Bishop Moore was penalized. Asan was put on a stretcher and into an ambulance after about a 30-minute delay.

After an 89-minute lightning delay, Bishop Moore and Melbourne Central Catholic have kicked off. Hornets open the game with a 32-yard kickoff return by Matthew Sullivan that sets them up at the Bishop Moore 35.

8:05 p.m. — They have opened the gates at the stadium at Bishop Moore.

PRE-GAME NOTES:

Bishop Moore (0-2) cruised to a 42-13 win against MCC (2-0) last year, but this is a different Hustlers squad with a new coach in former UCF quarterback Ryan Schneider and a number of impact transfers.

No. 13 Lake Brantley at No. 11 Oviedo

Coverage by Chris Hays

TOUCHDOWN: Johnnie Cobbs scores for Oviedo from the 1-yard line. The scoring drive featured the Johnnie and Johnnie show as Cobbs and Rolins both had rotated carries for big gains during a drive that featured nine plays and went 95 yards with only one pass play. 14–0 Oviedo over Lake Brantley with eight 8 left in the first quarter.

7:50 p.m. — Players have yet to take the field as lightning delay continues.

PRE-GAME NOTES:

Oviedo is ranked higher than the Patriots despite two nail-biting losses that went down to the wire.

Saturday’s Super 16 game

No. 3 Jones at No. 8 Evans, 4 p.m. 

Coverage by Chris Hays

Orlando’s “Soul Bowl” game matches teams that are 7-7 vs. each other since 2005. Jones had a 5-0 streak going against the Trojans since 2015 before Evans scored its first win in the rivalry since 2009 last year. That was a 28-25 nailbiter at Jones.

PRE-GAME NOTE:

TFA (2-0), coming off a 21-14 win at Edgewater, plays a Pirates (1-1) team that went 11-3 last season — losing to Jones in a state semifinal 35-23.

No. 9 Lake Nona at No. 16 Winter Park

Lake Nona (2-0) goes to Showalter Field to face the host Wildcats (1-1) in a game where no love is lost.

Seminole is on a seven-year playoff streak (2019-25), including a 2020 state championship.

No. 12 East Ridge at Lake Minneola

The Lake County rivals meet for the first time in three years.

Lake Minneola (1-1) has owned the Knights (2-0) since they pulled out a 40-36 win in 2018. That ignited a string of six lopsided wins against East Ridge where the average final score was 53-7 from 2019 through 2024.

The Knights are clearly an improved team.

South Sumter at No. 14 St. Cloud 

Going to overtime, tied 27-27.

Prior to the missed field goal try, St. Cloud’s kicker did boot the ball through the uprights for what could have been the game-winner. But officials ruled that South Sumter stopped the clock with a time out before the ball was snapped.

7:50 p.m. — Game is on.

This start was delayed but players are taking the field at 7:15 p.m.

A challenging schedule continues for the Bulldogs (1-1), who lost 42-7 at Marietta, Georgia, last week after pulling out a historic win against Kissimmee Osceola. Tradition-rich South Sumter is 2-0.
