Sturgeon Composite High School Football , who opened their training camp on Aug. 15, kicked off their pre-season with a commanding 59-0 win against the Fort McMurray Catholic High Schools Saints on Saturday at Olexiuk Field in St. Albert.
Head Coach Chad Hill provided an update on the team’s performance, highlighting standout players in their first game of the season.
