Kickoff is set for 7:30 p.m. tonight, Friday, August 14, at Chattooga High School in Summerville.

Coaches will have a chance to evaluate returning starters, younger players stepping into larger roles and newcomers competing for positions as both teams make their final preparations for games that count.
