Crescent City Sports and Cox Sports Television will collaborate to broadcast a key non-district southeast Louisiana game between Brother Martin and Ponchatoula Friday night from “The Swamp” in Ponchatoula.
Live coverage for the matchup between the Crusaders (2-0) and Green Wave (1-1) begins on both CST and CrescentCitySports.com at 7 p.m. Ken Berthelot and Wayde Keiser will describe the action.
Friday’s game matches a talented Ponchatoula offense, led by senior quarterback and LSU commitment TJ Finley, against a Brother Martin defense that has yet to allow a point in two games this season.
An improved Green Wave defense faces a Crusader offense guided by sophomore quarterback Garrett Mmahat '22. Brother Martin running backs Chris Smith '20 and Jaylon Spears '21 have combined for 413 rushing yards in the first two games.
Friday’s game marks the first of three consecutive weeks of CCS-produced telecasts on CST. Next Friday, Newman faces Country Day at Tulane’s Yulman Stadium, and on Oct. 4, it’s the 100th meeting in the storied Jesuit-Holy Cross rivalry from Tad Gormley Stadium.
The Crescent City Sports team has produced more than 300 live streams since 2012 and will feature live streaming of no fewer than 30 high school sporting events throughout the 2019-20 school year. Additionally, in cooperation with Cox Sports Television, CCS will also produce up to 10 more events that will both be televised on CST and streamed on the site.
