Lake Charles, LA (KPLC) - The Iowa Yellow Jackets prevailed Friday night in the Game of the Week to stay undefeated.

It was the Yellow Jackets’ closest game of the year, but Iowa edged rival Westlake 31-28 to take the District 4-3A win.

Westlake’s Gavin Robertson hauled in a touchdown with just over three minutes left to pull the Rams within range, but Iowa hung on for the victory.

The win sets up Iowa (8-0, 3-0) for a match with Lake Charles College Prep (5-3, 3-0) next week for the District 4-3A lead.

Westlake is now 6-2, 1-2.
