PRESCOTT – This year’s football season will kick off with the Curley Wolves heading to Little Rock to take on the Newport Greyhounds at War Memorial Stadium.
Brian Glass, Wolves head coach, said during the summer he got word Newport needed a game and was willing to play Prescott at War Memorial. It was a chance he couldn’t pass up for the team. However, there was a problem – the Wolves were originally scheduled to open the season against Parkers Chapel, a team that stepped in last season to give Prescott a much-needed game. It wasn’t much of a game as the Wolves blanked the Trojans 51-0.
Glass called Elliott Jacobs, Trojan head coach, and asked if they’d mind playing Prescott’s junior varsity squad instead of the starters. Jacobs agreed and this opened the door for the Prescott-Newport game. Kickoff for the Aug. 27 season starter will be 7 p.m. In fact, all games will begin at 7 p.m. this year, except for the eighth grade and junior varsity games.
