By John Estridge from information released by FCHS Athletic Department

For the second Friday in a row, the Franklin County High School Wildcats football team will have to cancel its scheduled game due to COVID-19.

Friday’s game with Connersville is now off. Instead, the team will travel to Winchester to play the Golden Falcons. Kickoff is 7 p.m., and FCHS Athletics Director Denny Dorrel said there are a limited amount of tickets available. Those will be presold to the players’ family members. There will not be any tickets available at the gate.

Last Friday, the Wildcats season opener against New Castle was also canceled.

Thursday’s boys tennis match against Oldenburg has been moved to tonight, Wednesday, August 26, due to inclement weather predicted for Thursday.
