Friday Night Lights: Skippers Seek Return to Winning Streak
Prior to last week's loss to St. Raphael Academy, the Skippers football team was riding a three-game winning streak. They're currently second in Division II-A behind Cumberland and tied for ninth with South Kingstown High School in the Rhode Island High School Football Media Poll.
They'll face off against Shea High School on Friday, Nov. 8 at 7 p.m. at home.
Holding court on the top of the state’s rankings are Hendricken and Barrington respectively. However, that may change after this weekend as both teams face off against each other on Friday night. Can the Eagles oust the Hawks?
