LORETTO, Pa. (Nov. 3, 2010) - The Saint Francis football team will strap up at DeGol Field for the final time this season on Saturday, as the Red Flash get set to host the Bryant Bulldogs on a day that combines both Homecoming festivities and Senior Day celebrations.
Yes, this will be the last time the 10 seniors on the Red Flash squad will take DeGol Field on a Saturday afternoon. Emotions will surely run high among the upperclassmen, as well as their coaches and teammates, as the game draws near.
This is the third meeting between these two teams, with Bryant holding the 2-0 edge in the all-time series. The Bulldogs are 5-3 this season, with a 2-3 record in the Northeast Conference. None of those wins, however, have come on the road.
With cold weather and potentially snow in the forecast, it looks like a classic Northeast Conference match-up all the way. Tune in to The Edge 1400 AM and The Edge 850 AM for the game action, where Pat Farabaugh and Jay Roberts will have the call. You can also listen online on The Edge website. Or, tune into the live video stream on the Saint Francis athletics page. Finally, live stats will be available for the game as well.
