#3 Richard Montgomery at #2 Churchill
7News’ “Game of the Week” takes us to Potomac, Maryland, for the 4A Regional Semifinals between #3 Richard Montgomery and #2 Churchill. The Churchill Bulldogs (9-1) stormed past Clarksburg, 36-6, a week ago to advance to the semifinal round. The Rockets (7-3) had a tougher time in their opening round of the playoffs. They squeaked by Seneca Valley, 10-9, to keep their season alive. Churchill and Richard Montgomery kick off Friday at 6:30.

#5 Broad Run at #4 Heritage
In Leesburg, the postseason stage has been set. In the VA Class 4, Region C First Round, Heritage High School hosts Broad Run. The Pride (6-4) and the Spartans (2-8) saw each other during week five of the regular season. Heritage took down Broad Run, 27-19. The Spartans began the season 0-8, but entered Friday’s matchup with back-to-back wins over Park View and Tuscarora. Whatever magic the Spartans have found in recent weeks, they’ll look to keep that going as they try to pull off the upset. Heritage and Broad Run kickoff at 7 p.m.
