Undefeated Canal Winchester (4-0) hosts traditional powerhouse Pickerington Central (3-1) in a key OCC-Buckeye matchup at Mike Locke Stadium on Friday night.

The Tigers are coming off an emphatic 64-7 dismantling of Logan in which freshman Edmund McAllister III announced his arrival with a four-touchdown performance on the ground. Senior quarterback Rocco Williams added two touchdown passes in the rout.

Canal Winchester counters with their own high-powered offense led by senior quarterback Quinton McGhee, who orchestrated last week’s 55-30 road victory at Reynoldsburg .

Pickerington Central claimed a 51-23 victory in last season’s head-to-head on home turf.

Opening kickoff is set for 7 p.m. ET on Friday, September 19 with a live TV broadcast on NFHS Network .
