A storm is brewing at Hurricane Stadium this Friday night as the Dutchtown Griffins clash with the Prairieville Hurricanes. It's not just another game—it's the birth of a new rivalry in Ascension Parish: two schools, one gridiron, and a battle for local pride.

We had a great time at our Career & College Expo last night! Thank you to all the businesses, colleges, and our students who came out despite the weather.
