All games involving Duval County Public School teams were canceled or postponed, according to county athletic director Tammie Talley. 

The only teams that were able to salvage scratched games were Trinity Christian and Bolles. 

The Conquerors, who lost their game against Ribault in the batch of DCPS cancellations, were able to get Venice (1-1) scheduled on the fly to play on Friday night at 7:30. Trinity will host the Indians in what should be the best game on the schedule. Venice has reached three consecutive Class 7A state semifinals and won the 2017 state championship. 

Bolles (0-1) was also able to find an opponent to replace Savannah New Hampstead when it scheduled Hialeah Miami-Lakes. That game was originally a Week 2 matchup before it was scratched due to Hurricane Dorian. Bolles will host Miami-Lakes. 

Those follow a wave of changes a day earlier, 17 in all, that were either rescheduled or canceled.  

Currently, eight games are still scheduled for Friday night. Three games have been moved to Saturday, Fleming Island at Palatka at 10 a.m., Bishop Snyder at Gainesville Oak Hall (6 p.m.) and Akelynn's Angels Christian Academy at Columbia (7:30).

Three games were canceled in Week 2 due to Dorian.
