Deighan, Lakeland open season with win over Passaic Tech

Lakeland 29
Passaic Tech 9

Dan Deighan didn't seem to mind the rain during Lakeland High School's season-opening football game against Passaic Tech.  The senior quarterback ran for two touchdowns and threw for two more scores as the Lancers toppled the Bulldogs, 29-9.

Deighan opened the scoring with a 30-yard touchdown jaunt in the first quarter.  After PCT kicked a field goal to cut the lead, the Lancers scored a safety when they blocked a punt through the end zone.  On the ensuing drive, Deighan scored on a quarterback draw to make it 15-3 at halftime.

This was Deighan's first game back at quarterback after playing wide receiver for the past two seasons, but he didn't look uncomfortable.  His two touchdown passes capped a solid all-around day and put the victory away for the Lancers.

Lakeland plays at home again this upcoming Friday against Madison. -- Jersey Sports Now
