BRISTOL, Tenn. -- On Thursday night at The Stone Castle, the Tennessee High Vikings kicked off the 2017 football season and for the first time in quite a while, the schedule didn’t include the Dobyns-Bennett Indians from Kingsport.
Once Tennessee High decided to take the longtime rival off of the schedule for the 2017 season, the Vikings had a little trouble finding a replacement.
After battling scheduling issues with local schools, the Vikings would find themselves looking all the way to Knoxville to find a replacement opponent that would eventually come in the form of Class 5A state runner-up Knox Central.
