September 25, 2026 — Auburn, AL

Lee-Scott Academy rallied from a 19-0 first-half deficit but fell 25-23 to Trinity Presbyterian at Jud Scott Field on Friday when the Warriors’ tying two-point try was stopped less than a yard short with 34 seconds left, The Auburn Villager reported.

Brooks Zachry ran 20 times for 84 yards and a touchdown, Thomas Carmichael hit a 45-yard field goal before halftime, and Griffin Gaston scored twice — a one-play touchdown catch from Logan Wilson early in the fourth quarter and the final touchdown run. Wilson went 8 of 17 for 114 yards, and William Johnson caught three passes for 48 yards on the last drive.
