Football season winding down, while girls' soccer and volleyball postseason heat up

Posted

With just three weeks remaining in the regular season, region matchups are plenty during Week 9, as more than 100 of the 130 scheduled games are between region foes.

Schools are continuing to follow the COVID-19 guidelines and mandates and TSSAA believes that every adult and every participant must do their part and follow the guidelines set forth by the association and conduct themselves safely and thoughtfully so that the schools can provide as many opportunities as possible for the student-athletes this fall.

School administrators and coaches are aware of the guidelines and requirements, but the general public can educate themselves on what is being asked of everyone attending and participating in high school games this season by visiting the Return to Play page at TSSAA.org.

Spectators should be prepared to wear masks and have their temperatures checked at the entry gates. Those that are or have recently experienced COVID-19 symptoms will be asked to not enter the stadium. Because stadium seating capacities will be limited to allow for physical distancing, check your school's website or social media accounts for information on ticket availability. It is the host school's discretion to honor passes, or offer any public ticket sales at all, because of capacity restrictions.

The full scoreboard, schedules and standings can be found at https://tssaasports.com/sports/football/.

Historical Matchups

Week 9 of the season features a rematch of the 2006 Class 6A championship game between Smyrna and Ravenwood. Ravenwood took a 14-6 lead early in the second quarter, but Smyrna would respond with four unanswered touchdowns to take the 35-14 victory. It was the first state football championship for Smyrna and the game remains the only postseason meeting between the two programs.

More information about these games and others can be found at the online home of the TSSAA Championships, TSSAAsports.com.
