The Conway Christian Eagles (6-3, 5-2 in the 2A-5 conference) have clinched a playoff spot with one game remaining on the schedule.
Teams often have their playoff positioning wrapped up before playing their final games, but Friday's game between CCHS and Hector is a special situation.
Hector has forfeited the season-ending game for both teams because of a lack of players for the Wildcats.
Conway Christian's next game will in the first round of the playoffs where the Eagles will look to advance after last year's first round exit.
“We're kind of glad that we don't have to play a game that didn't particularly need; our numbers aren't that great either,” Adam (Fuzzy) Ragland said about the Hector game.
It serves as a de facto bye week for the Eagles as they can rest and watch the scoreboard on Friday night to see who their first opponent will be.
“We'll be ready whoever we play," wide receiver Tyler Kalahiki said. "We're in a pretty good stretch of football right now, and we feel like we can play with anyone.”
