The LCC Bears racked up 404 yards in total offense Friday and opened the season with a 26-13 win over Guardian Angels Central Catholic at Haskell Field.
The visiting Bluejays scored early in the game, but the Bears took the lead for good with a pair of touchdown passes. Dylan Taylor found Carter Kvols for a 69-yard pitch-and-catch, and later in the second he hooked up with Gibson Roberts for an 18-yard scored that made it 12-7 at intermission.
Eli Haisch gave LCC some breathing room with a 32-yard scamper off the far side midway through the third quarter, and Taylor added one of his own, beating the defender to the pylon for a five-yard sprint early in the final period.
LCC had a 404-236 advantage in total offense and had a good night offensively, going 7-of-13 on third-down conversions while playing turnover-free football.
Taylor was 6-of-15 passing for 128 yards and two touchdowns. Kvols led the receivers with 110 yards on five catches.

On defense, Carter Korth and Kvols both had six tackles, Taylor added five and Walker Stone and Bradyn Urwiler each had four.
