What a convincing win to open the playoffs!

The sight on the scoreboard at the B-B-E football field following last night's playoff win.

Here are the statistics for 5th-ranked Lester Prairie/Holy Trinity from their playoff opener against Buffalo Lake-Hector-Stewart last night. They piled up 341 yards of rushing offense along with 150 yards through the air while absolutely crushing the Mustangs. LP/HT scored on a kickoff return, an interception return and an offensive touchdown all in the first minute of play.

The Bulldogs (8-1) host B-B-E on Saturday night in Lester Prairie in the Section 4A semifinals. Exactly 52 weeks prior from then, the Jaguars lost 22-21 in a playoff heart-breaker to the Bulldogs on the same football field. LP/HT ultimately won Section 4A and then lost a nailbiter 35-34 to fellow Gopher Valley 'A' Conference rival Blooming Prairie in the Class A state quarterfinals.

Let's keep it going, Jaguars! Bring back some of the magic from 2010 when they beat LP/HT 41-6 in the semifinal round while earning their 2nd overall section final appearance in school history.
