Banged Up Lions Football Team Travels To Chattanooga

When the Cannon County Lions football team lost their opener to Watertown last Friday night, it hurt…literally. Cannon County starting quarterback Cody Petro left the game in the second half with an ankle injury, Defensive back and punter Justin Tobin missed most of the game due to a shoulder injury.  Several sophmores suffered injuries through practice and in the game.  Linebacker Jonathan Smith is still feeling the effects of a vicious block in the back which was not called last Friday night.  Nonetheless the Lions must make the trip to meet Grace Baptist Academy in Chattanooga.  The Golden Eagles didn’t look so golden against powerhouse Notre Dame in their opener last week as Notre Dame took the opening kickoff for a touchdown and never looked back winning 52-13.  Tonight’s game will kickoff at 7:00 local time.  We’ll start off the pregame at 5:30 with Murphy’s Matchups, then its the Thunder Pregame at 6:00  followed by the coaches corner at 6:45.  The game will be broadcast live on FM 96.7 and online through the internet at wbry.com
