2022 - GAME 9

  SAINT JAMES 1, Sumter Central 0  (forfeit)   



Sumter Central administration decided the morning of this scheduled game, Friday, October 14, to forego the 100 plus mile trip to Montgomery and forfeit the game.  This basically has no effect on Saint James, as they had already clinched the region championship.  It did prohibit Sumter Central from making the state playoffs, but they were already eliminated via games played.

The 1 - 0 score will be the officially listed score as none of the game actually took place.   This is the second time Saint James has won a game by forfeit.  Saint James won by forfeit over D.C. Wolfe in 1988 when their team disbanded midseason.

Saint James will go nearly three weeks without a game as the regularly scheduled off week takes place before a regular season ending trip to Ozark to face the Carroll football Eagles for the first time ever.
