Before descending upon Columbus, the members of Select '17 have one final shot at glory under the Friday night lights.
Typically a battle between teams from Louisiana and Texas, this year's edition of the Landers Battle of the Border pitted Bradenton, Florida, IMG Academy against Tulsa, Oklahoma, Booker T. Washington. IMG, led by Texas A&M quarterback commit Kellen Mond, took advantage of short fields all night on its way to a 49-7 win.
It was a stark difference from last week's 50-49 win over Centennial, California, in which the Ascenders won on a last-second two-point conversion.
