RAYMOND — Lester Wells scored both goals for Adams County Christian School in the second half, but it was not enough as the Rebels lost to the Central Hinds Academy Cougars 4-2 Thursday afternoon.

ACCS once again got off to a slow start, but this time it caught up with the Rebels as they gave up three goals and trailed 3-0 at halftime.

“After halftime, our guys decided to step it up, and we went up with a 4-2 final score,” head coach Jimmy Allgood said. “We missed a (penalty kick) shot early in the first half that could have changed the complexion of the game. At this point in the season, the guys got a little slice of humble pie today.”
