Over the past couple weeks the Eagles have scrimmaged against the University School of Jackson and Jackson Central Merry to find what they need to work on before the season starts against Trinity Christian Academy at home on August 23.

The Chester County Junior High Football team started their season with a huge victory over Decatur, 44-8, on Thursday.
“Huge back and big lineman. (Decatur) always is a tough team, especially up front,” CCJHS Head Coach Chad Hanna said. “Kind of out sized us. Made some big plays, especially on defense. Had two returns on defense, a pick six by Iziah Armstrong and a strip for touchdown by JSean Austin, and almost had a third on an onside kick by Hunter Hurst to put us in good position for another score.”
