Yet another Friday night of high school football was disrupted by severe weather, as Week 5 was marred by cancellations, postponements, delays, abrupt endings — and one three-week intermission.
The de facto SCISA 1A region championship game in Walterboro is still in progress — and didn’t even hit halftime before the officials called it a night after lengthy lightning delays.
The break likely benefits Beaufort Academy, which had ceded an early 14-0 lead to host Colleton Prep on a pair of touchdown runs from quarterback Cale Owens.
The game will resume on Oct. 17, meaning BA will lose its home game against Hilton Head Christian Academy that was previously scheduled that night, while Colleton Prep will have to scrap its home game against Lee Academy.
Battery Creek’s home game against Whale Branch was delayed twice before being cut short with 1:58 left in the third quarter, resulting in a 28-14 win for the Dolphins.
John Paul II’s road contest at St. John’s Christian Academy was canceled due to poor field conditions and will not be rescheduled.
