For the second away game in as many weeks of season play, Forney traveled to Midlothian last Friday night. The Rabbits were set for a matchup against the formidable Panthers and their Flexbone Offense with hopes of seeing another victory already in this young season.
Hoping to hit the ground running this week, in contrast to the difficult start of week one’s game, the North Forney Falcons came into last Friday night’s matchup against Little Elm looking to get on the scoreboard early.
The Pirates and Lions headed into Friday’s matchup both with wins under their belts in each team’s season opener, Kaufman with a strong win over state finalist Lindale 39-36 and the Pirates with a convincing win over Jacksonville.
Only eleven miles separate the Pirates and Lions down US -175.
The 2021 season opener was a night to remember for the Jackrabbits. Supported by excellent performances from the Forney Cheerleaders, Highsteppers, Forney Band, and Color Guard, the Forney Jackrabbit spirit was palpable throughout the game.
New was the word of the day when the North Forney Falcons took the field against Dallas ISD’s Woodrow Wilson Wildcats in a game played at City Bank Stadium last Friday night. The Falcons were led onto the field by new head coach, Eric Luster.
