A showdown between two of the area’s top high school football teams lived up to the hype Friday night.
Jones senior quarterback Tysan Robbins threw a pair of fourth-quarter touchdowns and Chad Lindsey intercepted a pass in the final seconds as the Tigers (3-0) rallied for a thrilling 22-21 win at Apopka (3-1).
Jones forced four turnovers in the win, including a game-changing fumble down the stretch that helped the visiting team overcome a 12-point deficit in the game’s final six minutes.
“When we got down, we just kept telling the kids that they gotta believe,” said Jones coach Elijah Williams.
