GADSDEN COUNTY, Fla. (WTXL) - East Gadsden and West Gadsden face off in our WTXL Game of the Week. County bragging rights are on the line for these two schools, as the foes square off for the Superintendent's Cup.
The two faced each other in the spring game, and West entered halftime with a 14-0 lead. 4A East came back to win 22-14 over their smaller, Class 1A counterpart.
Despite the bragging rights, both coaches insist there really is no rivalry, and if you want to believe it or not, it is just like any other game.
"East Gadsden is a county rival but it is a friendly rivalry," said West Gadsden head coach Joey Striplin.
East Gadsden head coach Corey Fuller agreed. "To be honest it's just another game for is," he said. "It's not a game that we go circle on our schedule and talk about how we are plying West Gadsden, it's more from their end."
The two rivals, or non-rivals, face off Friday at 7/ET at Corry Field in Quincy.
