Week 1 High School Football Schedule for the Lafayete, Louisiana Area
Summer workouts are done for high school football in Louisiana. So are scrimmages and jamborees. It's time to tee it up for real this week as the regular season begins.
Several teams in the Acadiana area will be strong again this year as the road to the Caesars Superdome and the LHSAA State Football Championships begins.
Last year, there were several schools that went far into the playoffs and two from Acadiana were crowned state champs.
Opelousas won the Non-Select Division II state championship while St. Thomas More won yet another Select Division II title. Another three teams from Acadiana were state runner-ups (LCA, Cecilia, Acadiana).
