Preview
The Kennedy Thunderbirds make the road trip to Hanford for a nonleague kickoff at Hanford High on Friday, Aug. 22. Both programs enter the season-opening meeting at 0-0, hoping to set the tone early in what figures to be a hotly contested opener under the Friday night lights.
There’s no recent meeting on record between these two programs, so expect coaches to lean on fundamentals and early-game execution as both teams look for a fast start. Kennedy heads into the week with a slightly larger following on SBLive (6 fans) than Hanford (1 fan) — numbers that can change quickly. Picks on the game page currently sit at 0 for both teams.
