Each week WUSA Televison(Channel 9) will chooses five of the region’s top football games, then it’s up to voters to pick which match-up will be named “Game of the Week” during “Toyota’s Highschoolsports.net Report.” The Broad Run vs. Briar Woods game that is holding the Battle for a Bette Cause fundraiser for Ryan is among the five and currently in holding a slim first place margin. We need your vote!
WUSA will send a photographer to the game that receives the most votes (and you can tune in to the 11 o’clock sportscast on Friday nights to catch highlights from the winning game). The poll is open until Thursday at 10:00 p.m. and we will announce the winner on-air every Thursday night.
