We are slowly coming down to the final few weeks of the football season, but enter Week 11 with some great district matchups on tap.

Freedom travels to Emmaus for a rematch of last year’s District 11 6A championship, while Northampton hosts Parkland in their biggest game in years. Yes, the Kids took on Freedom last year in the postseason, but they were never really expected to win. This week, however, they have a shot to punch a ticket to the district finals.

Becahi and Central have a rematch of their Holy War series for the 4A title, while Whitehall and Southern Lehigh battle for the 5A championship.

Northwestern and Notre Dame round things out with a 3A semifinal showdown, giving all the teams in the poll exciting matchups heading into the weekend.
