Welcome to Cass Tech Football Stadium, where the six-time State Champion King Crusaders travel to face the three-time State Champion Cass Tech Technicians in a historic rivalry game located in the heart of Detroit. This Michigan matchup finds itself in the 21st season of the Great American Rivalry Series and promises to be a thriller.
This in-town rivalry began back in 1950, and the King Crusaders maintain a small advantage in the all-time series of these two programs with a 38-34 lead in their 72 meetings. However, last season the Technicians of Cass Tech gave their best effort in evening up the series, with two nail-biting wins over King. Their last matchup concluded with a 24-23 victory for Cass Tech at Ford Field, home of the Detroit Lions. King is looking to return to their winning tradition from the 2021-2022 seasons when they won back-to-back State Championships, led by 2-time NFL All-Pro cornerback Sauce Gardner.
Mark your calendars for September 20th, for a Detroit football showdown, where 4,000 fans will be on the edge of their seats in what should be another close contest.
