Prior to the football season kicking off on August 24th against West Liberty, the Bears are prepping the Little Rose Bowl in West Branch with two key annual events: Meet the Teams Night and a scrimmage.

Meet the Teams Night

Meet the Teams Night will take place on Thursday, August 16th, at the Little Rose Bowl in West Branch. The evening kicks off at 5:30 with the Boost Club's annual parking lot auction where fans can bid on reserved parking spots for football games at the Little Rose Bowl. Following that, the West Branch Schools fall sports teams will be introduced, capped off by a Marching Band performance. For the final event of the vening, the Little Bear Cheer Camp participants will perform a cheer and dance routine.

Scrimmage

The night following Meet the Teams, Friday, August 17th, will be the annual football scrimmage. Once again, the Bears will be scrimmaging against Class 2A team Mount Vernon Mustangs. The Mustangs, coached by Lance Pedersen, son of Butch Pedersen, will travel to West Branch for a pre-season tune-up against the Bears. The JV squads will square off from 5:30-6:30pm with the Varsity squads following at around 7:00pm.
