Reserved seating season ticket holders for the returning state champion Ruston High School will be receiving an email today with information on renewing their seats for an exciting year.

Current season ticket holders have until Sunday, Aug. 4, to renew.

Fans will also have the option to reserve a parking spot in the newly constructed lot above the south end zone for $100, where the tennis courts used to be.

Bearcat fans will be treated to four regular-season home games of high quality football at The Hoss, and the Bearcats will be serving as the home team in late September in the Lone Star state in a neutral site matchup.

The Bearcats will host 2024 Division I, Select state-runner up Acadiana on Friday, Sept. 6, and then Cabot High out of Arkansas on Friday, Sept. 13, in a continuation of a home-and-home series.

Ruston will also be the home team on Saturday, Sept. 28, in a neutral site contest in Longview, Texas, against Stephenville High.

After a four-week stretch away from home, Ruston will finally return to The Hoss on Friday, Oct. 18, as the Neville Tigers return to 5A and continue a rivalry series that is approaching 100 years in a row of the two sharing the gridiron.

Finally, the Bearcats will host Pineville for Homecoming on Friday, Nov. 1.

All five games listed will be covered in this year’s season ticket package, which will be priced at $65 — the same price as last season.

“We are looking forward to the preparation to be ready to play all of the great teams we have lined up on our schedule,” Ruston head coach Jerrod Baugh said in February when the 2024 schedule was officially released. “It will be one big challenge after the next. We will need our fans to be ready to support our guys at home and on the road again this year.”

For fans that are looking to renew their season tickets, they’ll need to mark their calendars for Monday, July 22, to lock in their current reserved seat selections.

This season will also mark the first year that Ruston High will fully utilize its partnership with GoFan where fans will now purchase their tickets digitally.

“We’re super excited to have this digital program,” Ruston High principal Dan Gressett said. “It makes things so much easier, and it’s already taken some of the burden off of sporting events. We’ve been trying to go to some type of digital platform for a few years now, and we’ve finally made it happen.”

Current season ticket holders in reserved seating will have first access to renew from July 22 through Sunday, Aug. 4. At that point, any seats that have not been renewed will be put back into a pool to be purchased by the general public starting Monday, Aug. 5.

Season tickets will be sold from that point forward until either Friday, Aug. 30, or all have been sold.
