THE DIFFERENCE: Late in the fourth quarter, Leto, down 10-3, drove down to Blake's 3-yard line but fumbled the ball into the end zone. Blake recovered, stopping the drive and the rally on the Falcons' Senior Night.

GAME NOTES: Blake's Lucas Ferreyra hit a 32-yard field goal for the game's first points. … Carlos Perdomo scored Leto's only points on a 25-yard field goal. … Blake's Willie Hopps burst through the middle at the 20-yard line during a fourth-quarter run for the game's only touchdown. … Leto senior James Guyton came into the game with a Hillsborough county-leading 19 quarterback sacks. He added another against Blake.

STAT OF THE GAME: Hopps was the workhorse for the Yellow Jackets, rushing 25 times for 119 yards, which accounted for 73 percent of Blake's offensive production.

QUOTE OF THE GAME: "Our kids never gave up this season. Our first eight games were all against playoff teams. If we could've gotten off to a better start early on, we might've been 5-5 or 6-4. We weren't a 0-8 team; we were just playing teams that were playing at a little higher level than we were. But we are young. We have a lot of sophomores and juniors who can get us to the next level next year." - Blake coach Sean Washington
