2017 High School Football Schedule

FOX Sports Radio North Country, 97.9FM/1230AM, will broadcast 10 regular season games this fall, covering nearly all schools within its broadcast radius in 2017.

The schedule kicks off on Labor Day weekend with a pair of games, starting with the Friday Night Lights match between the Hoosick Falls Panthers and the Lake George/Hadley-Luzerne War Eagles and continuing into Saturday afternoon with the renewal of the Spartan Bowl between Burnt Hills and Queensbury.

In Week 2 we head south of the river for an interclass matchup between Ravena and the South Glens Falls Bulldogs.  Then in Week 3 we head for the first of two trips to Schuylerville this season as the Black Horses host the Hudson Falls Tigers in Class B.

Then a trip across the river to Greenwich for Week 4, as we check out John Irion's new team in Granville as the Golden Horde face the Witches in the Whipple City.

A doubleheader is on tap for Week 5, starting under the lights in Corinth as the Tomahawks face the Mechanicville Red Raiders, and wrapping up under the sunlight on Saturday Afternoon as the Fort Edward/Argyle Flying Forts face the Warrensburg Burghers.

A return trip to Schuylerville is on deck in Week 6 as we catch the defending champions for the first time all season.  The Glens Falls Indians, favorites to repeat again in Section 2, get tested by the Schuylerville Black Horses in what should determine the divisional champion.

Finally, rivalries are on the docket in Week 7 with a pair of games in Washington County.  First, under the portable lights in Granville, the Golden Horde face off against the Whitehall Railroaders in a renewal of their longtime rivalry, and then on Saturday, the annual Jug Game takes place in Hudson Falls as the Tigers host the Glens Falls Indians.

Week 8's broadcasts will be determined at a later time, with playoff games in Classes B and C getting priority.  If no local options exist, games that matter towards playoff seeding in Classes A and D will be scheduled for this week.  Weeks 9 and beyond will depend if local teams are still playing for a title, and will be made the week of the broadcast.

All broadcasts will begin 15 minutes before kickoff with a pregame show featuring coach interviews, previews of the game, and a comprehensive look at what's going on across Section 2.  All games will be heard on both frequencies, 97.9FM and 1230AM.
