LANGLEY — Welcome to the final full week of B.C. high school regular season football.
We have a big one Saturday, of course, as No. 1 Vancouver College visits No. 2 Notre Dame in a clash of undefeated Archbishops Trophy teams.
Yet to any program playing what might be its final game of the season, and specifically for its seniors who are potentially playing the final football games of their respective careers… all the best to you.
With that said, the latest rankings, the full schedules by conference and last week’s complete scoreboard follow in our annual weekend survival guide:
