Tri-Cities High School Football Preview: Week 8

MCC High School Football is winding down in the Tri-Cities

It is week eight in the Mid-Columbia Conference ( MCC), and it is a week where teams will be playing their conference schedule finales. It's a close race at the top as the three groups have identical records, but the point differentials set them apart. This week could mean a lot for several teams regarding their final standing.

Thursday

Hanford 37

Southridge 26

In a Thursday night game, The Hanford Falcons topped the Southridge Suns at Hanford's relatively new stadium. The win was Hanford's second in a row and moved the Falcons to 6th place in the MCC with a 3-5 record.

Friday

The 6-1 Kennewick Lions will travel to Oregon to play the 4-3 Hermiston Bulldogs on Friday in the NewsRadio 610 KONA Game of the Week.
