FOOTBALL SCHEDULES IN THE METRO. MRA WILL MISS OUT ON FRIDAY NIGHT'S GAME AGAINST PHILADELPHIA AND AS OF NOW, NEXT WEEK'S GAME AGAINST BAY SPRINGS BECAUSE OF THOSE OPPONENTS WILL BE UNDER QUARANTINE. MRA HEAD COACH HERBERT DAVIS ACKNOWLEDGES THAT NOT ONLY IS DEALING WITH A CANCELED GAME BECAUSE OF COVID-19 CHALLENGING BUT SO IS TRYING TO REPLACE THAT GAME. NO LEADS YET. MAYBE WE HAD ONE WE COULD GO TO, YOU KNOW GOING UP NORTH NEXT WEEK-NORTH MISSISSIPPI AND WE KIND OF DECLINED THAT EARLIER BUT THAT WAS BEFORE WE KNEW ANYTHING ABOUT THE PHILLY GAME SO I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THAT WE MAY GET BACK IN ON THAT BUT IT MAY BE TOO LATE ON THAT ONE. I DON'T KNOW. JACKSON PREP IS ALSO IN THE SAME BOAT. THEIR GAME AGAINST LAMAR SCHOOL SCHEDULED FOR THIS FRIDAY NIGHT HAS BEEN CANCELLED DUE TO COVID-19 CONCERNS. JACKSON PREP IS AVERAGING 44 POINTS PER GAME AND IS 3 AND OH ON THE YEAR. THEIR HEAD COACH ISN'T SURPRISED BY THIS CANCELLATION BECAUSE IT'S AN THE UNFORTUNATE NEW NORMAL FOR THIS SEASON. WELL THIS WAS A PROCESS WE KNEW WE WOULD HAVE TO BE DEALING WITH THROUGHOUT THE SEASON. WE HOPED IT WOULDN'T BE THIS GAME BUT THROUGHOUT THE SEASON YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM THAT POPS UP SO I THINK IT'S GOING TO BE MOSTLY WHO'S GOT MOST OF THEIR TEAM READY AT THE END OF THE SEASON. THAT'S GOING TO BE THE BIGGEST THING TO GET THROUGH AND MAKE SURE YOU'RE IN THE PLAYOFFS SO YOU CAN DO WELL THERE. THE PATRIOTS NEXT GAME IS ON THE ROAD AGAINST TAYLORSVILLE THE DEFENDING 2A STATE CHAMPIONS ON THE 25TH THAT'S IT FOR SPORTS. WE'LL BE RIGHT BAC
