The Henryetta Golden Knight varsity football team will take the field tonight against the Morris Eagles in the 2018 season opener for both Okmulgee County teams.

The Knights will look to snap a 2-game losing streak to their arch rivals tonight in a 7 p.m. battle at historic Cameron Field in Henryetta.

The last time Henryetta opened the football season with a victory was in 2015 when the Knights defeated the Eagles 26-12.

Since 2000, the two county squads have met 15 times with Morris leading the series 6-9. Morris has taken the last two battles by margins of 22-18 and 21-12, respectively, and has won 8 of the last 10 meetings. The two Henryetta wins during that span came in back-to-back seasons - 2014 and 2015.
