Downers Grove North Takes on Lyons Township in "Salute to Service" Game: Watch It Live

Get ready for an exciting Downers Grove North football game Friday night in . Lyons Township is hosting the Torojan, and both schools will be playing hard to raise funds for wounded veterans.

To kick off the game, players on both teams will line up on the field to shake the hands of vets who attend the game as they walk in. LT players will be wearing special camo jerseys for the game in their honor.

As if that's not enough, two paratroopers will be parachuting into the stadium carrying the game ball and an American flag as the National Anthem is played. 

Players jerseys will be auctioned off after the game, and special LT Camo Day T-shirts will be available for purchase for $10. Money raised from jersey and T-shirt sales will be donated to the Wounded Warrior Project—a nonprofit that provides aide to wounded vets.

This is a game you truly don't want to miss.

If you can't make it to the game in person, you can still catch all the action on Downers Grove Patch, where you can watch it streaming thanks to High School Cube.
