Looks like Mishiwaka Penn is still in the Eastern time zone-- and thus the start time for the X game there this Friday will still be 7 PM ET... It also seems to show (on the X website) that X will be streaming a "cast" of this game via ESPX... the return of "Owen"?
 
 
With Penn now 0-3 (they got pounded 37-0 by Cathedral last night), this is likely to be another non-competitive game... this schedule is shaping up to be a pale shadow of what was once forecast.
 
Mishawaka Penn (0-3) has lost to Cathedral (35-0), LaPorte (21-14) and Valparaiso (34-7) a combined score total of 93-21.
The Penn offense has yet to score in the first quarter and has only 1 TD in the first half.

Scheduling history behind this game
A week 3 visit to Penn was added to the 2019 Bomber schedule with a week 3 game at Ballaban slated for 2020
The draw was Penn QB Ron Powlus Jr. (son of Notre Dame great Ron Powlus Sr.) who was a junior back in 2019 (a senior in 2020)

2019 Game
In week 2 of 2019 Powlus Jr. suffered an ankle injury that would require surgery.
With Powlus Jr. on the sidelines the Bombers took a 37-0 lead early in the 4th quarter on sophomore Mason Rohmiller’s 32 yard FG
This began the second half running clock, the mercy rule having been approved by the IHSAA that spring.
Penn scored a TD vs the Bomber backups to make the final score 37-7.

2020 Game
In 2020 the game scheduled for week 3 at Ballaban Field was cancelled due to the communist plandemic as the Bombers played a 6 game regular schedule in front of select Bomber fans (mostly parents and friends of players)

Where is Powlus Jr. today?
So the Bombers never got to sack or intercept Ron Powlus Jr. due to injury and then lockdown.
Where is the 6’2” 225lb 3 star QB today?
On Saturdays he is on the Notre Dame sidelines as a backup to Wisconsin graduate transfer Jack Coan

2021 Game
Watching film of this years Penn team was as painful as watching film of Liberty, last weeks opponent
The bad news is since X travels to Penn again this year that means they signed another 2 year contract and the Kingsmen will be in Cincy in 2022 (ugh)
