Tate And Washington To Play In Wahoos Stadium’s First Ever Regular Season Prep Football Game

August 20, 2023

The Tate Aggies and Washington Wildcats have inked a deal to face off in the first-ever regular season high school football game to be played at Blue Wahoos Stadium.

The inaugural First City Bowl prep football game will be played Friday night November 3.

During the second inning of Saturday’s Wahoo game, Tate head coach Rhett Summerford and Washington head coach Ryan Onkka participated in a short signing ceremony on the field.

“What a great environment it’s going to be,” Summerford said about playing on the waterfront in Wahoos Stadium.

The Wahoos plan to make the First City Bowl and annual event.

    Wahoos Stadium is a multi-purpose stadium and can fit a full-sized football field. UWF’s football team played at Wahoos Stadium until 2022, after which they moved to Pen Air Field.
