SUMMARY: Due to rain, many high school games have been rescheduled, but some are still taking place, including a Class 1A Region 4 matchup in Chickasaw County, where Jason Williams reports live from Okalona High School. The Vman Rams, undefeated at 2-0, face the Okalona Chiefs, currently 1-1 in division play. If Vman wins, they secure the top seed in the playoffs, while Okalona needs to win by at least 12 points to impact the seeding. The outcomes could lead to a point differential determining the remaining seeds. Highlights and the “Giant of the Week” winner will be featured later.
