The undefeated Nechako Valley Vikings will be the heavy favourites when they step onto the field Friday at 4:30 p.m. at Masich Place Stadium to take on the Prince George Polars in a B.C. Secondary Schools Football Association semifinal playoff.
The Vikings rolled to a perfect 3-0 record to take the top seed in the Northern Conference double-A varsity standings and have allowed just 20 points all season. The Vanderhoof team wrapped up the regular season last Friday with a 14-0 win over the Kelly Road Roadrunners.
In their only regular season meeting, scheduled for Oct. 5, the Polars (0-3) were forced to default to the Vikings due to a shortage of players.
In the other Northern Conference semifinal, Friday at 7 p.m. at Masich, the second-place College Heights Cougars (2-1) will face the Roadrunners (1-2). The Cougars trounced PGSS 43-6 in their last regular-season game last Friday.
The two semifinal winners will meet for the P.G. Bowl on Friday, Nov. 1 at Masich.
In junior varsity North Division playoff action, the top-ranked Duchess Park Condors (3-0) start the playoffs Wednesday at 4:30 p.m. at Masich against the Kelly Road Roadrunners (0-3), while in the other semifinal, College Heights (2-1) will line up against PGSS (1-2).
The winners advance to the junior P.G. Bowl next Wednesday at Masich.
