John Carroll Catholic withstood a Glades Central rally before pulling away for a 42-27 victory Thursday night in Belle Glade.
The Rams improved to 2-0 on the young 2026 FHSAA season, while the Raiders fell to 0-2.
John Carroll built a two-possession lead late in the first half, but Glades Central responded with scores on either side of halftime to pull within one possession and briefly shift momentum.
The Rams answered behind senior running back Felix Jackson.
Jackson sparked a pivotal third-quarter drive with a long breakaway run before finishing it himself with a rushing touchdown to restore breathing room. He later delivered the game's biggest play, pulling up on a reverse and connecting with junior Donevon Richardson for a long touchdown pass that helped seal the win.
