Lakers give Dragons first Homecoming Loss since 2000, and worse beating since 1998.

Written Saturday September 27th, at 9:30 AM

The lowest of lows hit Lake Orion on Friday night.

No defense, no offense, no special teams, no heart, no nothing.

The Dragons were just dominated on their homecoming, losing for the first time since 2000 with a 39-0 loss to West Bloomfield.

This is the Lakers first victory over Lake Orion since 1982.

The loss was the worst since losing 48-7 to Rockford in the 1988 State semifinals for this program and is now in danger of missing the playoffs for the first time in 14 years.

Lake Orion (2-3, 2-2 Red) couldn’t get anything right, in which included a kickoff punt recovered by West Bloomfield (4-1, 3-1 Red), a punt return by Michael King for a touchdown, gave up slant passes for touchdowns, couldn’t handle the speed on the field, and also a Lakers defense that was very good.

The Dragons also couldn’t stop King or Tristian Jackson whom also had big nights for the Lakers.

Lake Orion needs to take things one at a time and now faces a very good Stoney Creek (3-2, 2-2 Red) team whom beat the Dragons 36-7 last season back at Rochester.
