Farmington at North County in Week One Rivalry Game on KREI

(Bonne Terre) There will be no tune up for these St. Francois County rivals this year. The Farmington and North County football teams have played one another in week two for the last several seasons, but this year the Knights head north to meet the Raiders in the first game of the season…

That’s Farmington head coach Erik Kruppe, whose team is riding a six game winning streak in the series, including a 48-6 victory last year. The Knights are coming off a 10-3 and district championship season.
North County went 2-8 last year, but coach Brian Jones is fired up to start the season with Farmington…

North County returns most of their skill position players from last year including quarterback Nolan Reed, running back Blake Head and wide receiver Karter Kekec…

While the Knights look to be strong up the middle of their offense with returning center Judd Cunningham, quarterback Kaden Files and full back Braden Botkin…

Admission will be limited at the game with all players and cheerleaders being issued four tickets apiece, but everyone can listen to this game on AM 800 KREI.
