Never thought we would get to this night, however football scrimmages are set for this weekend. Who is playing who and when? Tiussey Mountain is hosting Portage Friday night at 6 pm.

Why would they not have scrimmages? They are a pretty important part of preparation for the teams. If you are suggesting because of COVID i would say... if you can play then play if you cannot then don’t...but its all in or nothing at all....
Yes. Because of Covid. Why waste a week on a game that doesn't count? Why risk possibly being forced to shut down for two weeks on a game that doesn't count? Why risk injury playing a game that doesn't count? The NFL isn't scrimmaging this year. Why is the WestPAC?SteelTownSpud wrote: ↑September 4th, 2020, 1:41 pmWhy would they not have scrimmages?

If you don’t understand the difference between a professional NFL player not needing preseason and a high school team needing a scrimmage I can’t help you. My point is...its either safe to play or its not. Scrimmages are a VITAL part of a teams prep for games. If its not safe to scrimmage then they shouldn’t be playing games either... that’s all I am saying. So if its safe to play its safe to play....knowitall wrote: ↑September 4th, 2020, 1:54 pmYes.

At last check four WPIAL teams have already canceled their first game: Mt. Lebanon, Seneca Valley, Kiski Area and Peters Township.
