STATESVILLE, N.C. — Iredell-Statesville Schools will be starting their high school football games earlier.
This comes after a shooting threat ended last Friday’s Statesville High vs. West Iredell game early.
Beginning Thursday, junior varsity games will start at 6 p.m. and varsity games will begin at 6:30 p.m. on Friday.
The district will also allow law enforcement and school officials more visibility.
Parking inside the stadium will be limited to game-day staff, with handicapped parking placed in a designated area.
