Middle Tennessee high school football: Highlights, big plays and scores from Thursday's games
The first Friday night of the Tennessee high school football season is hours away.
But there are a handful of games on Thursday night which will jumpstart Week 1 of the high school football season.
This year, we'll have several ways to follow along and look back at high school football action in Middle Tennessee on Friday nights. We'll have live updates, a live scoreboard and a weekly highlights page each week, along with all of the coverage from our reporters at games and more.
Thursday, we'll have highlights from three games: Hendersonville at Oakland, Shelbyville at Tullahoma and Cane Ridge at Pearl-Cohn. We'll also pull together any notable highlights from social media from games across the area and the state.
