Here’s your Week 1 schedule for high school football in The Observer’s coverage zone
It’s finally here.
High school football kicks off Thursday with three days worth of games. We’ve got your full schedule below.
At least one game has been changed.
Anson County was scheduled to play Mountain Island Charter in Week 1. Mountain Island coach Robert Washington told The Observer that the game will not be played due to some team illnesses and that Mountain Island will look to replace this game by playing on its bye week Sept. 2. Washington said he’d prefer to play that game on the road.
Anson County will host the Cabarrus Stallions Friday.
