Ruston/West Monroe tickets go on sale this morning


Hoss Garrett Stadium will be the site of one of the premier high school games in the state when 5th ranked Ruston (8-1) hosts 7th ranked West Monroe (7-1) at 7 p.m. Friday.

In addition to the District 2-5A title, playoff seeding is on the line for both teams as the Bearcats can secure a top 4 seed and a first round bye with a victory over the Rebels.

However, in order to do so, Ruston must snap a three-decade losing streak against the Rebels which dates back to 1991.

Tickets for the game will go on sale this morning at 8 a.m. (until 1 p.m.) at the home side ticket booth of Hoss Garrett Stadium (booth located on Everett Street across from the cemetery). Tickets will be sold at same time and location on Tuesday.

Reserved tickets are $12 and general admission are $10.

A sellout is anticipated and some standing room only tickets will be sold.

Following Tuesday, any remaining tickets will be sold from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. starting Wednesday in the RHS Ticket Office located in the school.
