Redding Christian football remains undefeated, hands Central Valley 1st loss
The lion is the king of the jungle. It’s one of Africa’s “Big Five,” a term created by big-game hunters to describe the five most difficult animals to hunt on the continent. While those lions roam thousands of miles away, another pride has proven just as difficult to take down: the Redding Christian Football Lions (4-0). Fourteen different teams have tried, and 14 different teams have failed. On Friday, Sept. 18, facing off against the Falcons (3-1) of Central Valley, the Lions continued their reign, dominating the Falcons 71-8 and extending their winning streak to 19 games. “I knew we were going to win,” quarterback Wyatt Shaw said. “I had a very confident feeling. I watched a lot of film, but I didn’t realize that we were going to play that incredibly well.” Shaw became the first player in Northern Section history to pass for 100 career touchdowns last week, and he threw seven more in the win over Central Valley, extending his career total to 110. Shaw has now thrown 23 touchdowns through four games. If Redding Christian plays 15 games like it did in 2025, Shaw is on pace to finish with 86 touchdowns this season. More: Redding

Foothill celebrates special education students in 2nd annual 'Football for All'
There were touchdown celebrations, cheering crowds, a vibrant band and plenty of smiles filling Bill Johnson Stadium at Foothill High School on Thursday, Sept. 17. The Foothill football team hosted the second annual “Football for All” event, welcoming dozens of students from the Shasta Union High School District's Special Day Class Instruction (SDCI) program for a day of football, community and fun. Foothill SDCI teacher Kory Kammersgard worked with football coach and special education teacher Ross Griffith to create the event last year, and the positive response prompted a return in 2026. “‘Football for All’ was an idea Ross (Griffith) and I had, and it’s an opportunity for our students in the SDCI program to shine,” Kammersgard said. “These are students that are often left out of the limelight, and this is a chance for them to have a day that’s exclusively for them.” Students kicked off the event by running through a Cougar tunnel and onto the field, where they were met with high-fives from Foothill cheerleaders and football players. Shortly after, the students split into different groups to participate in throwing, catching, running and tackling drills alongside the football team. “Being a special education teacher myself, this means
