BALTIMORE — The Fort Hill vs Dunbar football game on Friday, Sept. 13 will be featured in the Baltimore Ravens’ RISE High School Football Showdown.
The game will be the third of four high school football games involving Baltimore area teams.
At each of the four games, Ravens players will visit each team pregame and participate in the coin toss.
The Ravens cheerleaders, the mascot Poe and the marching band will also attend.
Both teams will be introduced through a smoke curtain and pyrotechnics.
The teams will also receive a $2,500 donation from the Ravens and Dunkin.
Each game will be streamed live on the Ravens’ YouTube channel, and scores, highlights and a photo gallery will be posted on the Ravens website.
At the end of the season, a play of the year and player of the year will be awarded, and the winners will be recognized at a Ravens home game.
On Saturday, the first two featured games took place.
The first game saw St. Mary’s Ryken defeat Archbishop Curley 41-7.
Ravens receivers Deonte Hardy, a Curley alum, and Tylan Wallace were in attendance.
In the second game, Archbishop Spalding beat Dematha 26-10 with receivers Rashod Bateman and Zay Flowers in attendance.
The Ravens players have not been announced for the Fort Hill vs. Dunbar game, or the fourth game, Oakdale vs Linganore on Friday, Sept. 27.
When the Sentinels meet the Poets at Morgan State, it’ll mark the first regular season meeting between the teams.
They’ve played six times in the state tournament including in five championship games, with Dunbar holding a 5-1 advantage.
The last meeting was the 2017 title game, a 30-26 Poets victory.
