South San-Jefferson canceled, other San Antonio high school football games delayed
The season opener for Southwest Legacy and Marshall was postponed to Friday morning and several other high school football games were delayed.
Inclement weather forced the cancellation of the South San and Jefferson high school football season opener on Thursday, August 27, 2026. The game, scheduled to take place at the SAISD Sports Complex, was halted with eight minutes remaining in the first quarter due to the storm. South San was leading 7-0 at the time, with a touchdown scored by Isaiah Rodriguez on a 15-yard run.
Because there were no officials available to finish the game, it was ruled a no contest. This weather-related delay also impacted other San Antonio high school football games. Southwest Legacy and Marshall's match, scheduled for 9 a.m. Friday at Gustafson Stadium, was postponed. New Braunfels Canyon-Madison, Steele-Reagan, Sotomayor-Clark, and MacArthur-Burbank games were also delayed or canceled due to similar weather conditions.
