YUMA — On Friday night the Brawley Wildcats will play a football game against the Yuma Catholic Shamrocks. That much is definite. What will happen when they do is anybody’s guess.
Traditionally both teams have been among the biggest kids on their respective blocks, making consistent waves in the regular season and beyond.
