Orofino has cancelled their Friday night home game against Bonners Ferry, citing a lack of healthy players. The forfeit comes a week after Bonners Ferry beat Moscow 41-26 on Senior Night.
In varsity’s place, JV will travel to Orofino, in what Bonners Ferry Head Coach Danny Swift said was making the best of a less-than-ideal situation for all.
The Badgers will now prepare for their final game of the regular season away against Timberlake at 7:00 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 24. It will be their second and last conference game of the season.
Orofino last won a game in 2021 and have not won a conference game since 2018. They also forfeited one game last year against Grangeville.
Bonners Ferry is currently on a three-game winning streak, not including the forfeit. They are 5-2, their best record since 2022.
