The highlight at day one, if things play out how they’re expected to, figures to be John Marshall vs. Star Spencer at Taft Stadium. It’ll be interesting to see how Star Spencer’s offense fares against John Marshall’s defense, which returns 10 starters.

The second day figures to feature a preview of September’s Soul Bowl between Douglass and Millwood. This is one of the most heated rivalries in the state so it should be entertaining to watch. I’ve never covered the All-City Preview, so definitely looking forward to checking it out on Thursday.
