Lakeland Christian School

One of the core values of LCS is the belief that we are partnering with parents in the Christian education of their children. We believe that mutual respect, communication and involvement by all partners is essential for success of our mission.LCS is a school. We believe that being a Christian school and being a top-flight academic institution should not be mutually exclusive. On the contrary, we take the mandate of Colossians 3:23 that calls us to strive to be the best. We provide a variety of rigorous, engaging, academic and co-curricular activities that enable students to identify and express the full range of their unique gifts and abilities.

LAKELAND — Lakeland Christian was less than two minutes away from clinching a semifinal win to reach the final of the Class 3A, District 10 boys soccer tournament when Windermere Prep scored the tying goal.

After two scoreless overtime periods, Ethan Green scored the clinching penalty kick that lifted the Vikings to the 3-2 victory on Tuesday night at Vikings Stadium.

Lakeland Christian (9-5-2) will play top-seeded Lake Placid in the championship game at 7 p.m. on Friday.

’We’re scrapping every game,” LCS coach Grandy Streets said. “We haven’t had that one guy who scores a lot of goals for us. We’re just not lethal like that, but we try to find a way. I have bunch of people who score goals.”

The teams went eight players deep into the penalty kicks to decide the match. The first four players, Knox Gibson, Bo Copen, Hunter Patterson and Alan Gordon, scored for the Vikings.

The first Windermere Prep player missed, but the next four scored against Lakeland Christian’s Eli Hill, who played defender during the game but was put into goal for the shootout.
