“We are very excited to announce our football contest against Jackson State as Community Day,” said Prairie View athletic director Charles McClelland. “We have received tremendous support from the surrounding communities over the years. This is a great opportunity for our athletic department to show our appreciation to communities that have done so much for us.”
