As we look ahead to week 5, Region 6-6A begins region play. River Ridge will get their biggest test of the season when they visit region favorite Harrison. The Knights will be without starter Gino Portera. Can they find a way to minimize the output of one of the best quarterbacks in the country in Justin Fields?
There is also a pretty big rivalry game on the eastern part of the county as Creekview hosts Sequoyah. Only 8 miles separate these schools, but it’s not just neighborhood bragging rights that are at stake in this contest. A win or loss be either team could go along way in determining which team them is a playoff contender or playoff pretender.
Woodstock and Etowah will continue non-region play this week with both teams going on the road to face class 7-A opponents. It will be a good tune-up for both teams before all important region play. The Cherokee Warriors have the week off.
We hope that every student has used the extra 2-days of wisely, by hitting the books! Friday night football should cure any cabin fever that you might have developed. Get out and cheer these boys on this Friday!
