Are we kicking off the 2026 season with the biggest game of the year?

Probably.

After years of back and forth on social media, Iona Prep and Christian Brothers Academy have an opportunity to show who's really the No. 1 team in the state. The Gaels are back-to-back CHSFL and state Catholic school champions. The Brothers have won 43 games in a row, including three consecutive NYSPHSAA championships.

There are more than a dozen major college prospects in uniform between the two programs.

We'll be posting live updates and insights from the JMA Wireless Dome and coming back later tonight with complete game coverage, so check back for the game story, video and photo gallery.
