The Albany Lions football schedule had to undergo some changes after Baird dropped down to six-man football.

With Baird out of the district lineup, the only remaining teams in District 7-2A Division II are Albany, Cross Plains, Haskell, Roscoe Collegiate, and Hamlin.

The Lions will compete in two scrimmages against Coleman and Anson on Aug. 16 and 22 to start the season.

The season opener will be on Aug. 30 when the team faces off against Colorado City in Colorado City.

Two new faces on the schedule are Peaster and Menard.

Menard is a district 8-2A Division II team, while Peaster is a very new football program, only beginning its program in 2017. Peaster did not have a varsity football team last year, as they only fielded two junior high teams and a junior varsity team.
