ESPN2 will air Denton Ryan vs. Denton High football game
USA Today announced that the Denton Ryan versus Denton High game on Sept. 28 will be televised on ESPN2. It is one stop of ESPN’s 2017 GEICO ESPN High School Football Showcase tour this season.
The game, which was originally scheduled for Sept. 29, will be played at C.H. Collins Stadium.
Showcase is the right word as the Ryan Raiders have some of the top recruits in the state. Quarterback Spencer Sanders is an Oklahoma State commit and receiver Gabriel Douglas is a Texas Tech commit.
Sanders accounted for over 4,300 total yards and 56 TDs. Douglas had 1,302 yards receiving and 17 TDs.
