Phoenix football players celebrate with Luke Peters after the senior returned an interception for game-clinching touchdown late Friday night, Aug. 22 — sealing a 20-6 win at Parkston. No 5-ranked Freeman/Marion/Freeman Academy used a stout defensive effort and just enough offense to secure the big Week 1 win over a familiar rival in the Trojans. Parkston was ranked No. 3 in class 9AA in the preseason poll.
