The wait is over for Lugoff-Elgin football fans as the Demons kick off the 2026 season Friday night by hosting the Chapin Eagles in a highly anticipated non-region matchup.
After weeks of summer workouts, preseason practices, and scrimmages, the Demons will finally take the field looking to start the new season with a home victory. Chapin enters the contest as a familiar Midlands opponent, setting the stage for what should be a competitive opening-night showdown.
Lugoff-Elgin hopes to use the energy of the home crowd to build momentum early and establish itself before region play begins later this season. Meanwhile, the Eagles will be looking to spoil the Demons’ home opener.
If you can’t make it to the stadium, Kool 102.7 has you covered with complete live coverage of the season opener. Airtime is set for 7:00 p.m., with the pregame show leading into kickoff as the Demons begin another exciting season of high school football on Kool 102.7.
