South Lakes-Herndon Game Rescheduled For Monday

Kickoff is 6:30 p.m. at South Lakes.

South Lakes and Herndon have rescheduled the varsity football game for Monday at 6:30 p.m. at South Lakes, coach Marvin Wooten said. The game, scheduled for Friday night, was postponed when more than six inches of rain fell in Reston Thursday, flooding street and canceling school for Fairfax County Public School students on Friday. South Lakes (0-1) and Herndon (0-1) are crosstown rivals, and the game is billed as the annual "Baron Cameron Bowl." South Lakes won the matchup last year, ending a seven-season losing skid against the Hornets. South Lakes lost 52-6 at home against Westfield in its opener. Herndon lost 14-7 to Langley.
