Week four of high school football in Orange County will include a full schedule of games on Thursday, Sept. 14 and an early kick-off time for a non-league showdown between Northwood and Crean Lutheran on Friday, Sept. 15.
A number of games have been moved to Thursday due to the start of Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year that begins on sundown Friday, Sept. 15 and ends at sundown on Sunday, Sept. 17.
On Thursday, Sept. 15, Woodbridge will play its first ever football game on its campus field at 4 p.m. vs. Dana Hills, according to co-athletic director Ryan Brucker. The Warriors normally play their home games at University High.
The Warriors’ lower-level teams use the campus field for games.
Bleachers were installed on the campus field about three years ago so there will be seating for fans, Brucker added.
University (2-2) will be playing Thursday night at 6:30 vs. Savanna (0-4) at University while Portola will host Katella and Irvine will host Laguna Hills in 7 p.m. games Thursday.
Among the other games Thursday is a battle of Huntington Beach between Marina and Huntington Beach at Huntington Beach. Marina won a wild 42-32 game over Redlands Thursday night.
