The Eagles which have struggled to put a full 10-game schedule together most seasons in the last decade, will find the addition of this game a welcome sight of relief.

Niceville, which was placed in District 6A-3 in the latest reclassification that will be effective the next four years, only has three district games, which has left the Eagles to hunt for at least seven more games to complete a full schedule for the 2015 season. According to part of the schedule already posted online via C2CSchools, Niceville’s schedule will also include games against Class 5A state runner-up Godby, Lincoln and Escambia as well as rival Navarre at the end of the season.

The game is scheduled to played on Friday, September 18 (Week 4).
