Dwyer Denies Palm Beach Lakes

     The Dwyer Panthers outlasted the Palm Beach Lakes Rams 32-24 at Blum Stadium on Thursday night. It is unlikely that both teams will make the FHSAA postseason. 
     Palm Beach Lakes(5-5) rolled out to an 8-0 lead at the 6:34 mark of the first quarter. Running back Xander Robuste went around the right end from one yard out followed by a two-point conversion. 
     Dwyer(4-6) bounced back with a two-yard touchdown run by running back Dylan Elie through the right side of the line with 4:04 to go in the first and they trailed 8-6.  
     The second quarter belonged to the Panthers. Oliver Robbins booted a field goal with 4:20 remaining to give them a 9-8 lead. Quarterback Koden Brown connected a 48-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Rodney Green Jr. on the front left side of the end zone and they led 15--8. 
     Robbins would kick a short field goal for Dwyer at the 6:14 mark of the third quarter for an 18-8 lead.  The Rams got another touchdown as Robuste sprinted in from seven yards away. They added another two-point conversion with 41.9 seconds left in third quarter and were down 18-16. 
     There was plenty of scoring in the fourth quarter. The Panthers found the end zone when Brown sneaked the ball in from one yard away at 10:38 to give them a nine-point margin. 
     Palm Beach Lakes answered back on the third rushing touchdown by Robuste with 6:13 to go and they trailed 25-24. Dwyer pulled away as defensive lineman Dylan Reiman intercepted a pass and returned it for a score and they had a 32-24 advantage with 1:45 left in the fourth.
