Union and Jenks each will make three appearances on the Cox Communications' high school football telecast schedule, including meeting each other in their season opener.
Norman North and Broken Arrow also will be on three times according to the 19-game schedule announced Monday.
In arguably the state's biggest rivalry, defending Class 6A champion Union will face Jenks at 7:05 p.m. Aug. 30 at the University of Tulsa's H.A. Chapman Stadium. Union edged Jenks 30-29 in the 6A semifinals last year.
Al Jerkens, longtime KJRH-2 sports director, will broadcast Tulsa-area games this season. He replaces Mike Wolfe, who was dropped last month after Cox's nightly sports show, "SportsNight Oklahoma," was canceled after five years. Steve Marshall will call Oklahoma City area games. Rod Thompson will be the primary analyst for all Cox games.
