Teams played in Week 3 and now Week 5? Is this a misprint?
It's A Great Day To Be A Raider!

East has done this twice before. They played Green twice in a season, and they played Symmes Valley twice in a season.
I don’t personally think it’s a great practice, but I get why schools do it.

South Gallia lost a game due to Fed Hock cancelling their season. This was the best option available to them instead of having an open week and only playing 9 games.

Given what both teams are actually going to finish up with I don't see it as a problem, like formerfcfan said East has done this a number of times over the years. These are smaller schools where if they can find a closer game it's much less money lost rather than finding a team and driving 2 hrs to play them.

A lot of schools do this time to time schedules and who you can play and open dates are usually the cause of this.
Sometimes playing someone who is in your backyard is better than traveling 2 plus hours for a game.
