A prompt to encourage your practice of creativity this week from Riversider and local author Larry Burns.
Poly Football returns to their ancestral homeland at Wheelock.
Poly High School Bears will host its rivals, the Martin Luther King Wolves, for the home opener at its new home stadium, Wheelock Field. This won't be the Bears' first football game at RCC. Wheelock Field was originally built as part of Poly High School in 1921 before the school relocated to its current location at Victoria and Central. Poly used Wheelock as its home field until the 1960s and has played there sporadically since. This season, Poly will play all of its home games at RCC.
ML King is the newest school in town, but the Wolves vs. Bears rivalry is strong. Wheelock oozes history and is a great place to catch a game. It should be cool enough to wear your Varsity Jacket on Friday night. Tickets for the game can be found at GoFan.
Since we already have the picture up, the RCC Tigers Football team has been 35-5 since 2021. That's pretty good! They are also the ONLY college in Riverside with a football team, and tickets are cheaper than going to a movie. Keep track of their championship-defending season and check their schedule here.
