Westlake kept up the pressure with another tough road win over powerful Atascocita; Lake Travis cruised to an easy win over Midland Legacy in response and Dripping Springs edged a dangerous Harker Heights squad to maintain the 26-6A podium sweep for another week.
Vandegrift seems to have settled into its groove with a shutout over Stony Point and Bastrop outlasted Prestonwood Christian in one of the many Friday night track meets to round out our Top 5.
Anderson’s impressive win over College Station helped them leapfrog Weiss, who lost a tough one to league favorite A&M Consolidated. With Georgetown holding serve at #8, Vista Ridge edged Round Rock to step over Rouse who became the latest local team to come up short against the resurgent Waco Midway Panthers.
Liberty Hill travelled 5 hours each way to get Coach David Seaborn’s first win to remain #11 while Austin LBJ edged Wimberly in a battle of 4A powers to move up to #12.
McNeil flexed its offensive muscles with a 70-spot to surge past district rivals Stony Point and Cedar Ridge, The Hutto Hippos debut at #15 after outlasting Cedar Ridge. Sandwiched in-between is Bowie, who won impressively on the road at Bible Stadium over Glenn.
Hendrickson knocked Hays out of the Rankings with a wild 1-point road win over the Hawks; Pflugerville and Pflugerville Connally reappear after impressive non-district wins while Cedar Ridge and Stony Point hang on for now to close out this week’s Rankings.
Another batch of districts begin district play this week, which should bring things further into focus. For now, here’s this week’s Power Rankings comers and goers heading into Week Four.

Boom!
The Anderson Trojans rode a series of explosive plays to surge to a convincing 37-14 win over College Station Friday night (9/12) at House Park in our VYPE Austin Central Texas Game of the Week.
The evening started quietly enough when senior running back Caleb Crenshaw bull-horned his way into the end zone from 2 yards out to give Anderson the early lead.
College Station, however, along with their Aggieland partners in crime A&M Consolidated, have dominated Austin-area teams over the past few years. So, it was no surprise when the Panthers answered back. Senior quarterback Keaton Johnson tied the game with a 21-yard touchdown strike late in the first quarter, then put the Panthers on top 14-7 with a 3-yard plunge early in the second.
Then the Trojan firework began.
After a delay of game call wiped out an Anderson field goal, College Station blocked the second attempt – only to see Anderson holder Liam McMillian make a senior play by scooping up the football and tying the game on a 13-yard scamper. Next, following a Panthers punt that pinned the Trojans down on their own 2 yard-line, Crenshaw burst off left tackle and outraced the defenders for a 98-yard touchdown to propel Anderson to a 21-14 halftime lead.
The Trojans then pulled away in the third quarter. After senior Ryan Ostboe increased the lead with a 39-yard field goal, junior quarterback Cove Darbyshire (15-22, 189 yds, TD) found senior Yaheim Riley in the corner of the end zone for a 16-yard score that made it 31-14 Anderson. Crenshaw (32-228, 7.1 YPC, 3 TD) capped off a monster night with a 61-yard rumble to close out the scoring at 37-14 after a missed PAT.
College Station (0-1, 0-3) hosts crosstown rival A&M Consolidated Friday night (9/12). Anderson (1-0, 3-0), now the only undefeated team remaining in District 12-5A-2, will also face A&M Consolidated on Friday 9/26 after this week’s Bye. VYPE will broadcast that game.
