Jaquarius Collins seeks to gain yardage against Lake Wales in the JV football game Thursday as Troy Jones prepares to protect him on his run. Bartow lost the game to the Highlanders 30-0.
The Yellow Jackets broke its four-game losing streak, beating Sebring in 24-7 Friday night.
The tardiness led to a 30-minute delay in the start of the district matchup between the Jackets and the Blue Streaks. Both teams were looking for their first 2012 district win and Bartow seeking to rebound from a four-game losing streak. Last year, Bartow got the best of Sebring for their lone district win.
