Last season, the Eagle Football Alumni Association had the idea to host a pair of high school football games to kick off the regular season a week before most teams get underway. A great turnout showed up for both games and the association will keep the tradition going tonight as the Erk Russell Classic returns for its second season. This year’s classic will again feature a pair of games at Paulson Stadium.
