Ruston High principal Dan Gressett said Wednesday evening that more than 3,200 tickets were already sold for Friday night’s marquee match-up against West Monroe set for Hoss Garrett Stadium at 7 p.m.
According to Gressett all 1,296 reserved tickets on the home side are sold out while more than 900 general admission tickets have already been sold. West Monroe was provided 1,000 tickets on the visitors side to sell.
General admission ticket sales will resume this morning at 8 a.m. in the RHS ticket office located near the main office. General admission tickets are $10.
Gressett said RHS student tickets for the Cat Box will go on sale Friday morning to the Ruston student body.
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.
A sellout is anticipated and some standing room only tickets will be sold.
