The Big Sandy Mountaineer -

For the second time this season the Big Sandy Pioneer football team was forced to stay home instead of taking the field for a varsity football contest. Earlier in the season it was the unforeseen forfeit to the North Star Knights that cost them a game, this past week it was the Augusta Elks who had canceled their season back in August.

The playoffs are still very much a possibility for the young Pioneers and they can look forward to pursuing that goal this Saturday when they head to Denton to take on the Denton/Geyser/Stanford Bearcats in a crucial Northern C Six-man football contest.

Big Sandy will close out the regular season with home games against the Power/Dutton/Brady Titans on Friday, October 12 and the Valier Panthers on Friday, October 19.

The first round of the playoffs will be Saturday, October 27.
