Get ready, Dons Nation. Wednesday, October 8, marks a night you do not want to miss. It’s Wednesday Night Lights as Acalanes hosts Las Lomas in a showdown under the lights, right here at home. This is more than a game. It’s our mission. Your Acalanes Dons are currently ranked #69 and Las Lomas is ranked #65 (yes that close!) in the entire country out of 2,913 schools that field girls’ flag football teams in the 2024-2025 season (MaxPreps). That’s right, 2,913 teams across 30 states, with 17 states now officially hosting state-sanctioned flag football play. States like California, Florida, and New York are leading the charge, and Acalanes is right there with them. Las Lomas enters ranked #103 nationally, setting the stage for a marquee matchup between two powerhouse programs. With high energy, rankings, and pride on the line, this is one of the biggest games of the year at our house!
Come Hungry with the Dons. Hungry for the Knights.
We’re firing up more than just school spirit this Wednesday night; the grills will be hot, and the energy even hotter. The ACA Meat Team will be serving up perfectly grilled tri-tip, pulled pork sandwiches, and more fan favorites, turning our stadium into the best dinner spot in town. This isn’t just any BBQ, it’s community-powered. Proceeds from the ACA Meat Team benefit local Bay Area youth organizations, so every bite supports a bigger cause. Whether you’re a student, parent, alum, super fan, or just here for the exciting game, this is the place to be. Grab your plate, claim your spot in the stands, and get ready for a game that promises mojo, pride, and big-time plays.
This is our house. Our night. So show up loud, show up proud, and show Las Lomas what it looks like when a community rallies behind its team.
