Last Thursday, the Grand Lake Hornets hosted the Oakdale Warriors in non district action. It didn’t take long to get on the board as quarterback JJ LaBove connected with receiver Kelan Vasquez from 25 yards out to take an early lead. The Hornets really never looked back after that as Oakdale struggled to move the ball against the Hornets suffocating defense.

Grand Lake went into halftime with a 35-6 lead and kept their foot on the gas in the second half ultimately defeating the Warriors 48-14 which is their first win over Oakdale since 2022 and also tying the all time series 2-2.
