Friday’s season opener between Bridge Creek and Elgin has been pushed back to an 8 p.m. kickoff due to heat concerns. The game will be played at Elgin.
“We talked about it last week and looked at the weather and decided it was the right move to make,” Bridge Creek coach Jerry Wallis said. “It was the best thing we could do for the kids and the best thing we could do for the fans.”
The game isn’t the only one that has been pushed to a later kickoff.
Lawton and Lawton Eisenhower moved their Friday game back to 8 p.m. as well.
As of Monday morning, the forecast for Saturday calls for highs in the mid-90s.
