The Westwood football team wraps up their final week of preseason workouts this week. The Rockets have been working hard and competing for starting positions.

The Blue/White game will begin at 7 PM at Dyer-Bouldin Field and feature an intersquad scrimmage. The scrimmage will get underway at 7 PM and is a fundraiser for the Rockets football team. Each of the players will get a chance to play and show off “under the lights” for the first time this season.
The Rockets will take part in the Cascade Jamboree on Friday before opening the season on Thursday the 10th at Chapel Hill when they take on Forrest. The Rockets first 2 games are on the road before returning to Dyer-Bouldin Field on August 17th to take on Cascade in their first home game of the year.
