Let’s look at one of the favorites this weekend in high school football's postseason up in Copan.

The Hornets are hosting their first playoff game since 2008. Following an 8-2 regular season and a 4-1 District record, Copan was the 2-seed out of Class B-II District 4. Copan hosts 5-5 Cherokee on Friday night.

The home game is the next in a continuation of goals for Copan football, which has gotten considerably better over the past three years. Copan made the playoffs for the first time in more than a decade last year.

Head coach Marshall Foreman talks about importance of getting in the postseason. 

The Hornets improved to 8-2 after a blowout win at Arkoma on Friday night, 46-0.

Cherokee will be a major test. Foreman says the Chiefs may be the second or third best team his club has faced so far.

Foreman says that stopping the run game will be a major key for the Hornets on Friday night. 

The only football game in Washington County on Friday night, Copan hosting Cherokee in the first round of the B-II playoffs.
