It has been three weeks since 8-0 Trinity Catholic Football played a varsity game on the field defeating John Burroughs 62-7 on Oct. 6

After St. Charles High forfeited the Nov. 13 game, Trinity got a bye on Oct. 20 after the co-cops of Northwest Academy of Law and Sumner, and their combined enrollment made them too large for Class Two, District Two

Therefore, after two weeks off, Trinity — seeded second in Class Two, District Two — will host third-seeded Cardinal Ritter College Prep Friday, Oct. 27, at 7 p.m. Ritter is 9-1 losing only to visiting Trinity 57-0 on Sept. 1. The Lions opened District Two play Oct. 20 with a 49-0 rout of Herculaneum.

Also in Class Two, District Two top-seeded Lutheran North had a bye last week as well. The Crusaders last played Oct. 14 and tied a school record in points scored in an 82-6 rout at Normandy High, scoring 12 rushing touchdowns including six by Canaan Brooks. Friday at 7 p.m., the 9-0 Crusaders host 3-6 Carnahan High School of the Future, a St. Louis Public School that routed PHL rival Cleveland NJROTC 62-0.

Friday’s winners will play Nov. 3, 7 p.m. at the highest seeded survivor.
