Prep Football Preview: The Holy Bowl


 #2 St. Augustine Saints at #3 Cathedral Catholic Dons 
Friday, November 11, 2011
 
Last Meeting: 11/12/10 Cathedral 21 @ St. Augustine 28

Manchester Stadium will be packed this Friday when two of the best teams in the county renew their long standing rivalry, and this time the stakes will be high. Not only will the winner claim the Eastern League title, but will also have the #1 seed in the Division 3 playoffs. The lucky folks in attendance should be treated to a hard fought close knit battle between two teams who are evenly matched from top to bottom. Don't be surprised if this game is decided in an unofficial overtime.
