Wayne Lyons gets another SEC Offer

I received a visit today from Ole Miss. My head coach was informed that I had been offered awhile ago, but we hadn't received anything. I definitely appreciate the offer.

2009 Football Season: Week 11 vs Miramar

This week is our final game as we play Miramar High School at Miramar on Friday, November 13, 2009 at 7pm. This has been a long season, with many ups and downs.
  • Update: Terrible way to end the season, lost 37-0. They way I look at we have 9 months to get ready for next season. Two weeks to rest the body then I will start training for the Army National Combine, then track season.

2009 Football Season: Week 9 vs Everglades

This week's opponent is Everglades High School on Friday, October 30, 2009 at 7pm. The game will be held at Dillard.
  • Update: We got a much needed win, 14-10 heading into the final district game of the year. Not sure of my exact stats yet but I did make a few big plays, including a stop at the end of the game to force a fumble and seal the victory. Once coach provides the stats, I will update again. Stay tuned....

2009 Football Season: Week 8 vs South Plantation

This week is Homecoming against South Plantation High School on Saturday, October 24, 2009 @ Dillard. Game starts at 7:00PM. Hopefully we will bounce back and add a "W" in the win column.
  • Update: 12 tackles, 6 for loses, a safety and a 40+ yard kickoff return all in vain. We lost our homecoming game 34-16. We have a record of 2-5. The first loosing record I have ever been a part of. What a terrible feeling. We have to find a way to turn things around.

2009 Football Season: Week 7 vs Plantation

This weeks opponent is Plantation High School on Friday, October 16, 2009 at 7:00pm. The game will be played at Dillard.
  • Update: Plantation won 39-14. Terrible lost. Too many turnovers and mental mistakes. Although we cause man turnovers as well, we didn't capitalize on them like Plantation did. I did score on a 46 yard fumble recovery. I also had 7 tackles, including a couple for loses. Our offense is still trying to find chemistry. Hopefully we'll pull it together for this week's homecoming game. This week the defense folded a bit, giving up 3 touchdowns (the most all season). I won't QUIT!!!

2009 Football Season: Week 6 vs Boyd Anderson

This week features our first District game of the Season with cross town rivalry, Boyd Anderson (BA). This should prove to be a really good match-up. With only 3 teams in our district, this is a very critical game for both teams. Game will be played on Saturday, October 10, 2009 at Lockhart Stadium.
  • Update: BA 13 - Dillard 10. Another heartbreaking loss. Still haven't gotten over it. Had a good game, finished with 12 tackles, 1 for a loss, and 1 assist.
