Frontier Communications Kanawha Classic Pits WVSU Against University of Charleston

CHARLESTON, West Virginia -- The annual football rivalry game between the University of Charleston and West Virginia State University has been jazzed up a bit for this season.

The game at University of Charleston Stadium has been switched from its original date of Saturday, Oct. 18, to Thursday, Oct. 16 and has been dubbed the Frontier Communications Kanawha Classic.

Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. The teams will vie for local bragging rights and a trophy.

“That’s exciting,’’ said Jon Anderson, the Yellow Jackets’ second-year coach. “We’ve worked together with Frontier to make it a big event. We’re looking forward to that game for sure."

The game between the neighboring rivals, separated by less than 12 miles, is also a league contest in the second-year Mountain East Conference.
