The St. Aloysius Flashes football team has clinched a playoff spot and will advance their season this week.

St. Al’s regular season came to an end last week in a 18-0 forfeit loss due to weather against Cathedral High School.

The Flashes finished the 2020 regular season with a 4-6 record under first-year head coach Stacy Sizemore. St. Al struggled in the first half of the season but began to turn things around last month when they defeated Silliman Institute 38-0.

The team will travel to Greenwood, Mississippi, Friday to play Pillow Academy, which has a 7-3 record.

Pillow Academy and St. Aloysius haven’t played each other in over a decade, and both teams will be fighting to keep their season going. The game begins at 7 p.m. Friday

Vicksburg High School football player Shakori Regan had one of his best games in his varsity career Thursday against Canton.

Regan finished the game with four rushing touchdowns to help the Gators win 36-20. He also had 106 rushing yards on the night helping the team (2-6) further their playoff hopes.

Regan switched from quarterback to running back this season and is now the team’s lead rusher. He had scoring runs in both the first and second half of the game to help the Gators maintain a steady lead over Canton.

Regan and the Gators will have a forfeit victory Friday over Callaway who opted out of the 2020 season due to COVID-19 concerns.
