The Chattooga Indians return to the Little Big Horn Friday night for Homecoming, taking on the Gordon Central Warriors in a Region 7-AA matchup.

Both teams enter Friday night’s game looking for their first win of the season. Chattooga is 0-5 overall and 0-1 in region play, while Gordon Central is also 0-5 overall and 0-1 in the region.

Chattooga is coming off a 23-0 loss to Gordon Lee, while Gordon Central fell to Lakeview-Fort Oglethorpe 35-26 last Friday.

For Head Coach Roone Gable and the Indians, Friday night’s game provides an opportunity to pick up an important region victory in front of the Homecoming crowd.

The game caps off a week of Homecoming activities at Chattooga High School, including the Red & Black Bash held Wednesday evening. The Homecoming Court will also be featured Friday night as students, alumni and supporters gather at the Little Big Horn.

Trion has the week off, making the Chattooga-Gordon Central matchup the featured WZQZ football broadcast this week.

The game will be heard live on WZQZ 99.1 FM and will also be streamed live on the WZQZ Facebook page.

The Chattooga broadcast crew of Chris “Bubba” Wilson and Steiner Davis, along with cameraman Mason Gilreath, will bring listeners and viewers all the action from the Little Big Horn.

Kickoff between the Chattooga Indians and Gordon Central Warriors is at 7:30 PM Friday.
