Playoff seeding on the line tonight
Important region games are on tap for all three area high school football teams tonight. The No. 1 ranked Lafayette Commodores have an opportunity to not only remain perfect on the season and win 10 or more games again this year, but wrap up the region title with a win at Tunica-Rosa Fort.
Oxford will try to keep pace and finish at least third in Region 1-5A with a win at Lake Cormorant. Water Valley, meanwhile, hosts Winona in an important Region 2-3A game that will go a long way in figuring out which team finishes second or third in the region.
Kickoff for all three games is set for 7 p.m. Lafayette’s game can be heard locally on 93.7 FM. Oxford will be broadcast on 95.5 FM, while the Blue Devils can be heard on 105.5 FM. (October 22, 2010, Page 7A)
LHS looks to wrap up Region 2-4A title Friday
Being able to plan ahead is a luxury.
In football terms, being able to lock up first place can pay off big time, and on Friday, the Lafayette Commodores will earn that chance when they travel to Region 2-4A opponent Tunica Rosa Fort.
The 7-2 Lions enter Friday’s game having just lost to Senatobia 27-16 and are currently in fourth place in the region behind Center Hill and the Warriors. (October 21, 2010, Page 8)
