Well, this game has been circled on the calendars of football fans in the Columbia Basin since the day the schedules were created. The Connell Eagles come to David Nielsen Memorial Field tonight at 7pm to square off against the Royal Knights. We should be able to predetermine the outcome based on comparative schedules, correct? I mean the Eagles lost to Othello 9-7 and the Knights blew Othello out 56-0, right? Both have played the Wahluke Warriors, but the Knights scored four more touchdowns than the Eagles, didn’t they?
If that is how you are setting your expectations for this game, in short, you are dead wrong! The Eagles ALWAYS play their best game against the Knights. Don’t expect tonight to be any different. Do expect the Eagles to be a bit more run oriented. Do expect a war at the line of scrimmage. Do expect “big plays” to be a determining factor. Do expect the Eagles to try to pressure Royal QB Sawyer Jenks. Do expect to get your money’s worth.
This game will likely determine the SCAC-East Championship. The Knights are ranked #1 and the Eagles #4. A game of this magnitude will draw football fans and media from across Eastern Washington and beyond. We will be hosting the crew from Cascadia Preps and the Russell Wilson Quarterback Academy. Expect a halftime interview with them. We will also air a pregame interview of both coaches, which was conducted by Micah Chen of Cascadia Preps earlier in the week.
Get there early to ensure a good seat. If you can’t be there, WATCH LIVE at www.royalknightsfootball.com Kickoff is scheduled for 7:00 and the broadcast will begin a little earlier than usual at around 6:30 since there is so much to preview before kickoff. Go Knights!!
