IRMO, S.C. — The Irmo High School football team heads to North Augusta on Friday, Nov. 13, for a second-round Class 4A Lower State playoff game. Kickoff at the host Yellow Jackets’ stadium is scheduled for 7:30 p.m., and the winner moves on to the quarterfinals.
Irmo carries the No. 6 seed. North Augusta is seeded third and had a first-round bye. Both schools use a Yellow Jackets nickname.
The teams already met this season, in Columbia, and North Augusta won 25-16. The hosts are 9-1 and went unbeaten in Region 5 play.
North Augusta head coach Richard Bush said the open week let his players reset before single-elimination football, and he called Irmo a strong team that is playing well on both sides of the ball. He said his team is stressing fundamentals in all three phases.
The South Carolina High School League’s second round of playoffs begins Friday across the state.
