Knights improve to 2-0 with fourth quarter surge

Aug 29, 2008 - Since the program's inception two years ago, Lancaster Christian has never come back in the fourth quarter to win a ball game.  That all changed Friday night against Faith Covenant Christian Academy.  From the first snap of the game it was easy to see that FCCA was more athletic at almost every position than LCA.  However, LCA proved to be the tougher team throughout the four quarters.  Justin Gosnell opened the scoring for the Knights with a 30 yard field goal.  Later in the first half LCA attempted another field goal that was blocked and returned for FCCA's only touchdown.  LCA held the Eagles on four downs in the fourth quarter and took possession around mid-field.  The Knights drove the ball down to the twenty-two yard line.  On second and seven the Knights ran a half back pass to the Eagles one yard line.  The Knights pushed it into the end zone and missed the two point conversion.  The final score of the game was 9-8.

Knights explode in second half to take down MJCA 48-19 in opener

Aug 22, 2008 - LCA looked poised for a big first half as Junior Cody Gwynn intercepted Mount Juliet on their first play of the game.  However, the Knights went three and out on their first drive.  LCA held Mount Juliet in check on defense and then Stephen Dye rumbled 78 yards to open the scoring for the Knights.  LCA opened up a 13-0 lead in the second quarter.  That lead didn't last very long as the MJCA Saints came back to score making it 13-13 before LCA scored again before the half making it 19-13 at half time.  In the second half LCA began to chew up big chunks of yardage on the ground.  LCA scored four touchdowns in the second half to win 48-19.  LCA had a school record 518 yards rushing in the game. 

The Knights host Faith Covenant Christian Academy from Huntsville, Alabama on Friday, August 29th.  This game is the home opener for LCA and kickoff will be at 7:00 at Smyrna Middle School.

Knights fall short in a tight game at Zion Christian Academy

Aug 15, 2008 - As with our other two scrimmages this year, (Nashville Christian and last Friday night vs Zion) we couldn't seal the deal.  We had the lead late in the game thanks to a nice drive which started at our own 35 yard line.  With about a minute left in the game Stephen Dye scored on a 19 yard scamper that put us up 27-21.   We did not execute the PAT and we left Zion with a little too much time.  They scored quickly on a deep pass and made the point after to retake the lead 28-27.  We saw a lot of positives tonight and I'm sure we'll see even more once we look at the film.  We had very few penalties tonight and only one turnover.  Our #2 guys got some valuable playing time tonight during halftime.  They scored twice and shut out Zion's second unit.   Again, my hat is off to Zion and their coaching staff.  They do a great job executing their scheme and they are well coached.  We wish them the very best in their season. Please invite friends and family and come out next Friday night at Mount Juliet Christian Academy @ 7:00 to support the Knights in our season opener.
God Bless,
Coach Greene

We are proud of our team's effort Friday night against Zion

Aug 8, 2008 - Our kids had a very good off season. They worked very hard in the weight room and in camp. We were proud of their effort last Friday night against Zion. Unfortunately we made some pretty big mistakes in terms of penalties and turnovers. Zion is a very good football team that is well coached. You cannot give any ground to them relative to costly penalties and turnovers or you will lose. My hat is off to them and their coaches, they are fine football team and program. We also saw some very positive things from our kids that bode well for the upcoming season. A lot of players got into the game and that's always a plus. We will get back to work on Monday and correct our mistakes. I think this team could be pretty good if we continue to work hard and stay healthy of course.
