Week 7: Reitz (2-4) at Memorial (3-3)
The Panthers head to Enlow Field Friday night, as they battle the Memorial Tigers, the defending Class 4A State Champions.
The Tigers had a rough start but have won the last three to even their record. The Panthers have taken an inverse path, and while this class has never beaten their namesake rivals, they’ll work to leave Enlow with a win.
