The Forest Hills Rangers will take on the Clearfield Bison at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, both will really light up the scoreboard.
Forest Hills is headed out to face Clearfield after opening their season at home and giving their fans just what they were looking for. Forest Hills came out on top against Greater Johnstown by a score of 38-26 on Friday. Given the Rangers' advantage in MaxPreps' Pennsylvania football rankings (they are ranked 173rd, while the Trojans are ranked 495th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.

Forest Hills was able to grind out a solid victory over Clearfield in their previous meeting back in September of 2023, winning 22-13.
