This year's schedule of high school football rivalry games begins in about an hour, when Hope and Central meet at Providence's Conley Stadium in the first game of a city double-header. There are five other games on tonight's high school schedule, and 15 games set for tomorrow morning around Rhode Island. Click here to see tonight's games, and here to see tomorrow's games, and here to vote for the winners.

We'll have photo galleries later tonight from the intra-Warwick matchup between Toll Gate and Hendricken, as well as the intra-Pawtucket game pitting Tolman against Shea.

Tomorrow, we're planning photo coverage of La Salle-East Providence, Cranston East-Cranston West, North Kingstown-South Kingstown and Pilgrim-Warwick Vets, as well as a video from the Tiverton-Central Falls game. It will all be posted, along with complete results and game summaries, throughout the evening tomorrow.

Online now, you can read a couple of interesting Thanksgiving football stories from John Gillooly: one about Hope center/linebacker Shea Deignan's unlikely path to stardom, and another about a relatively new Thanksgiving rivalry between Exeter/West Greenwich and Chariho.
