LAURINBURG —Due to the threat of inclement weather later this week, Scotland football and volleyball have both moved their home games up a day. Football’s matchup with Southern Lee will now take place on Thursday night at 7 p.m. instead of Friday while volleyball’s home game against Union Pines will be on Wednesday night instead of Thursday. The game will still start at the regularly scheduled time of 6:15 p.m.

Football will be entering their matchup with the Cavaliers at 2-3 (1-0 in conference games) after defeating Hoke County 45-32 on Friday night at Pate Stadium.

The Scots are currently 12-4 (4-3 vs conference opponents) on the season with one of those losses coming at the hands of the Vikings (10-5, 4-3) on Sept. 3. The schedule change will result in Scotland having three games over three days after falling on the road to Pine Forest on Monday night. They also had a three-game stretch over three days last week where they defeated Richmond and Terry Sanford but fell to Hoke County.
