Saturday, Sunshine and Summit Academy Football

by Jeff Fisher
The High School Football Huddle


As most of you know, I'm a huge fan of Saturday afternoon high school football. My alma mater, Wilson still plays all of its home games in the sunlight, and tomorrow, our High School Football America cameras travel to Pen Argyl for its afternoon game against Northern Lehigh.

In searching the PA papers this week, I came across a story about a western Pennsylvania team that not only plays on Saturdays, but uses a nearby wooded area for it's pre-game lockerroom.

The school is Summit Academy, which is a a reform school for adjudicated youth, is located in Butler County. According to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette story, watching the Knights play on Saturdays, is a one-of-a-kind experience.
