The CTC football team is climbing the National Club Football Association poll, achieving their highest ranking ever by sliding into the No. 2 spot. The Golden Eagles are coming off a dramatic 23-20 two-overtime win against Orangeburg-Calhoun Tech, ranked 10th in the poll. 

Chatt Tech will play its third straight home game to open the season this Sunday at 2:30 p.m. at Osborne High School, as fellow club team Columbus State comes to Marietta. CSU, an NCAA Division II member in all its other sports, lost 47-15 back on Sept. 10 to No. 1-ranked club team the University of New Orleans. UNO is also the defending national champion.

At 2-0, the Golden Eagles have excelled offensively behind the quarterback play of Bryan Owens and a strong committee of running backs. On special teams, placekicker Brett Snyder, who hit a 33-yarder to defeat Orangeburg-Calhoun, is perfect on extra points and 2-of-4 on field goals.

Tickets are $7 for adults, free for students/faculty/staff with ID, and free for children 12 and under. Press and high school/college coaches also get in free.
