FOOTBALL ALBERTA GAMES OF THE WEEK
TIER 2 – #1 Holy Trinity Academy Knights at #3 Hunting Hills Lightning
5 p.m., Friday, October 4, Great Chief Park in Red Deer
It’s rare you get two teams this highly ranked in Tier II playing each other at this time of the year, but the exhibition schedules for both teams have given us this beauty under the Friday night lights in Red Deer. Both teams are also undefeated and looking to make their mark later on in the year, so games like these are only “exhibition” in name only.
TIER 4 – #1 Stettler Wildcats at #8 Ponoka Broncs
4 p.m., Friday, October 4, Ponoka High School
A tough road for the Broncs as they are still relatively new as a program compared to Stettler and very new to this ranking business having only cracked the Top-10 for the first time last season. Still, good football is being played in town now and when you have the #1 team in Tier IV come to town it’s a test to see how far they have come.
