The high-school football season began Wednesday afternoon at Earl Marriott Secondary, as the South Surrey school’s junior varsity squad played host to North Vancouver’s Argyle Pipers.
The orange-clad Mariners defeated the Pipers 24-6.
Next up for the EMS squad is a Wednesday home tilt against Langley. Marriott’s Grade 8 squad also begins the football season next week, with a four-team jamboree that also includes Holy Cross, Lord Tweedsmuir and Seaquam.
