The Lakewood football team will hit the road Friday for a 7 p.m. CIF Southern Section Division 8 semifinal game at Rancho Verde High in Moreno Valley. Tickets aren’t yet available but we will post the link as soon as it goes live.

Stay tuned for features, previews, and podcasts all week in the run-up to the Lancers’ big game.
