The season opening football game between South Elgin and Fenton scheduled for Friday night has been canceled.

"Yes, we had to forfeit week one due to COVID-19 concerns," Fenton coach Matthew Lynch said.

 

Storm athletic director Mike Jezioro said South Elgin is looking for a new opponent so they can still play Friday.

"As of right now, we do not have a varsity game for Friday," Jezioro said. "We are working on getting a replacement game."
