Crescent City Sports to live stream East Ascension-Destrehan football Friday night

NEW ORLEANS – Crescent City Sports’ live streaming coverage of high school football continues Friday night with a non-district Class 5A matchup between East Ascension and reigning Division I non-select state champion Destrehan.

Coverage from Wildcat Stadium in Destrehan will begin just prior to the scheduled 7 p.m. kickoff. Ken Berthelot and Wayde Keiser will describe the action.

The Wildcats (2-0) went 14-0 a season ago en route to claiming the sixth state championship in school history and the first since going back-to-back in 2007 and 2008. This season, Coach Marcus Scott’s team has picked up where it left off, outscoring Bonnabel and John Ehret by a combined 72-14 to extend its winning streak to 16 games. In the course of that streak, Destrehan has allowed 6.5 points per game.

The Spartans (0-2) reach the midpoint of one of the most difficult non-district schedules in Louisiana, facing their third perennial state championship contender in as many Friday nights. East Ascension lost to Zachary in Week 1 and West Monroe last Friday, and has games with Alexandria and De La Salle remaining on its non-district slate.

A year ago, Destrehan won 42-2 in Gonzales.

The Crescent City Sports team is in its 13th season of producing live broadcasts for television and internet, having produced nearly 500 live streams since 2012, and is continuing its extensive commitment to prep sports coverage on its website for 2023-24.
