After each having a week off, the McClatchy Lions and the Kennedy Cougars will shake off the cobwebs and face off against one another at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. McClatchy will come in still looking for their first win of the season.

McClatchy strolled past Kennedy in their previous meeting back in September of 2023 by a score of 34-18. The rematch might be a little tougher for McClatchy since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
