Minimal changes to schedules

PICAYUNE — As far as the prep football schedule goes, nothing has been changed for this week by press time early Tuesday afternoon.

Picayune is slated to host Forrest County AHS on Friday, and Maroon Tide head coach Dodd Lee said that no decision will likely be made until Thursday if the game will be played.

Also, Pearl River Central is on the road at Perry Central and Poplarville is on the road at Enterprise-Lincoln. Both of those games are still on for now as well.

Pearl River Community College has moved its season opener from Thursday to Saturday., due  to the impending weather conditions expected from Hurricane Isaac the East Mississippi Community College football season opener against visiting Pearl River Community College has been rescheduled for Saturday afternoon, Sept. 1, on the Scooba campus.  Kickoff is set for 2 p.m. at EMCC’s Sullivan-Windham Field.

Originally slated for Thursday evening (Aug. 30), the EMCC-PRCC non-division contest will mark the season opener for both teams.  Fifth-year  head coach Buddy Stephens’ EMCC Lions enter the 2012 campaign as the nation’s No. 1 team in the NJCAA Preseason Top 20 football poll after claiming a school-first NJCAA National Championship a year ago with a 55-47 victory over Arizona Western College in the El Toro Bowl played in  Yuma, Ariz.

Mississippi  Gulf Coast Community College's football season-opener at Coahoma, originally scheduled for Thursday, has been moved to 5 p.m. Saturday in anticipation of Hurricane Isaac.

St. Patrick has rescheduled its home football game with Pope John Paul, moving it to Saturday night at 7:30.

The game was originally scheduled for Friday night but was moved back one day due to Tropical Storm Isaac.

St. Patrick is 1-1. This is the home opener for the Irish. This is the season opener for Pope John Paul.
