No Thursday night lights for varsity Bearcats
Good news for Sherman Bearcat fans: Looks like there won't be any
odd-day scheduling this fall for the second year in a row. All varsity
football games are scheduled for Friday nights, according to the school.<br>
<br>
Last year, because of the shared-stadium situation within the McKinney
and Frisco school districts, Denison was forced to play a Thursday
night District 9-4A game against McKinney High at Ron Poe Stadium.<br>
<br>
Two years ago, when Sherman and Denison were paired with Denton ISD
schools, the Bearcats played a Saturday game and the Yellow Jackets
played a Thursday night contest, both against Denton Ryan. Denison
played at Denton Guyer in a Saturday afternoon game and at Denton High
on a Thursday night in 2006. Like with McKinney, three schools share one stadium in Denton.<br>
<br>
The Denison 2009 schedule has not been officially released yet, but
since the Jackets host both McKinney schools at Munson Stadium, the
odds favor the Jackets also playing all their 9-4A games on Fridays.
Denison has four trips to Frisco on the agenda, but the Frisco ISD has
two stadiums (FISD Memorial and Pizza Hut Park), which simplifies
scheduling.<br>
