Crescent City Sports to broadcast Newman-Country Day showdown Friday afternoon
Crescent City Sports will showcase one of the best rivalries and best atmospheres in Louisiana high school football Friday afternoon when it broadcasts a live stream of the Newman-Country Day matchup from Wenzel Field in Metairie.
The live stream will begin just prior to the 4 p.m. kickoff. Emmanuel Pepis will call the play-by-play.
The game is the District 11-2A opener for the Greenies (5-0) and Cajuns (3-2).
The teams are meeting at Country Day for the second consecutive year. Last season, the Cajuns jumped to an early lead and rolled to a 51-21 victory over the Greenies. In 2015, Newman won at Lupin Field, 40-14.
The game has the potential to be high-scoring. Country Day has scored 143 points in its three victories this season, including 77 last week, while Newman has averaged 39 points per game.
Crescent City Sports will feature live streaming of no fewer than 30 high school sporting events throughout the 2017-18 school year.
