Moran Homecoming is Friday, Oct. 2 at 7:30 p.m. against the Three Way Braves.

“With all the normal distractions of homecoming, the guys have been extra focused on the task at hand,” said Moran ISD athletic director John Hughes. “Friday will be a challenge against Three Way, but if the guys do their jobs, we should hopefully get into the win column.”

Last Friday, the Moran Bulldogs came up short in the end against Lingleville, losing in a high scoring game of 59 to 70.
