The prep football season continues as St. Joseph takes on Portage Northern during a home game at St. Joseph High School. I've spent the last two Friday nights covering football in the rain so it was nice to have a dry night. It was another defensive battle but St. Joseph was able to rally in the fourth quarter to take a 17-7 win. Next week it's Lakeshore which should be an interesting game as both teams are undefeated.
