Most Chapel Hill-area high schools have moved their varsity football games this week to Thursday in anticipation of Hurricane Hanna.
Hoping to get their games in before the heavy rains predicted for this weekend, Carrboro, Chapel Hill, Cedar Ridge and East Chapel Hill each plan to play one day earlier than previously scheduled.
Chapel Hill (1-0) now is scheduled to play at Smithfield-Selma (1-1) at 7:30 p.m. Thursday in a highly anticipated rematch of last year’s state 4-A playoff game. CHHS won that game 13-7.
Also, East Chapel Hill (0-2) will host Cedar Ridge (1-1) and Carrboro (0-2) will host Cardinal Gibbons (0-1). Each of those games is scheduled to begin at 7 p.m. Thursday
Orange (2-0) and South Granville (2-0) have yet to announce a decision about their game in Hillsborough.
