The Knights have the opportunity to secure the SCAC-East league title tonight on the road at Columbia-Burbank. Royal remains undefeated after winning their biggest challenge so far this season, taking down previously undefeated Connell 24-21. Every time Royal looked to seize the momentum, Connell battled back. Despite their lowest point total of the season, the Knights did enough to secure the win. Both teams are still set up for potentially deep playoff runs and would meet in the semi-finals if both win out from here. Follow the link to a great game article that also includes some great photos.

The Columbia-Burbank Coyotes have struggled of late, dropping four consecutive league contests before getting a big rivalry win last week over River View. It will be Senior Night for the Coyotes and their senior QB Reece Humphries is always dangerous with both his feet and his arm. The Knight defense will have to keep him in the pocket and maintain good coverage to limit his big play ability. The bigger question is what will the Coyotes try to slow down the Royal offense? Royal QB Sawyer Jenks has 25 TD passes and just 2 interceptions through seven games. Senior receiver Corbin Christensen has 26 catches for 11 TDs. The Knights have three receivers average 23 yards/catch or more.
Come out and spend your Friday night with the Knights. If you can’t make it in person, join us and LISTEN LIVE at www.royalknightsfootball.com Kickoff is scheduled for 7:00 pm and broadcast will begin around 6:45.
