Cedar Rapids – Aplington-Parkersburg’s opening football game August 28th against Dike-New Hartford will be a very special night and now it will be even more special.

ESPN is going to broadcast game nationwide.  You will also be able to see it on KCRG-TV9 and the other ABC affiliates in the state of Iowa.

Details of the broadcast and kickoff times are still being worked out.

This will be A-P’s first game since head coach Ed Thomas was shot down this past June in the Falcon’s weight room.
