The Superior High School football team earned the No. 2 seed for the upcoming WIAA playoffs and will host No. 7 Holmen in a Division 2 game at 7 p.m. Friday at the NBC Spartan Sports Complex.
The game was originally scheduled to be played Friday. It was moved to Saturday then moved back to Friday because of a conflict with ACT testing on Saturday, according to SHS activities director Ray Kosey.
Holmen’s request for a neutral site was denied by the WIAA.
Gates will open at 5:45 p.m. This is a WIAA event so no passes will be honored at this game. This includes golden opportunity, sponsorship, student or staff passes. Admission to the game is $4 for students, adults and seniors and $1 for children under 6 years of age.
The winner of the Superior-Holmen game will play the winner of the Ashwaubenon and DePere game next weekend.
