A matchup that won’t have playoff implications for either team is our game of the week: Butler at Karns City in the first ever meeting between the two programs.

You know this live blog editor by now, we love firsts around here and intracounty matchups. And that’s exactly what we’re getting in Week 8 of the PIAA football season.

Eagle reporters will be at four Butler County games tonight — Butler at Karns City (John Enrietto), Brookville at Moniteau (Derek Pyda), Deer Lakes at Freeport (Will) and New Castle at Mars (Scott Giebel). Follow this page for updates and scores from those games and all the rest throughout the night. Eagle sports editor Jake Merda Adams will post updates and highlights along with scores from kickoff to the final whistle.
