It's week seven of Texas High School Football and as if the season hasn't already been one to remember, the match-ups are starting to heat up! VYPE DFW has some of the top games for this Friday evening that you are not going to want to miss. Let's take a look:


Rockwall (4-2) vs. Tyler Legacy (3-2)

Rockwall Yellowjackets vs. Tyler Legacy Raiders -- Friday, October 8 at 7 p.m.

Rockwall Yellowjackets

After a BYE week, the big question is whether or not the Yellowjackets will begin to prove themselves yet again. Rockwall posted a strong 3-0 start to the season including a huge win over Austin Lake Travis. Despite such a great start, Rockwall soon fell to the likes of Highland Park and Rockwall-Heath. Both losses were still incredible games for the Yellowjackets, but were the losses detrimental enough to shake Rockwall up and derail them from their goal?

Quarterback Braedyn Locke has thrown for 1,851 yards and 16 touchdowns this season while also scoring two rushing touchdowns. Zach Hernandez has scored eight rushing touchdowns on over 1,000 rushing yards and Noble Johnson has scored seven touchdowns on 541 receiving yards. Rockwall's offense has the stats to put up against any team that they face.

Tyler Legacy Raiders

The Raiders are coming into the game against Rockwall with an unblemished district record. Their only two losses on the season came in preseason play against tough Longview and Allen teams. Last week, they posted an outstanding 42-7 win over Dallas Skyline and will bring the same energy into Friday looking to prove the naysayers wrong.

The main weapon to watch on the Raiders' team is senior running back Bryson Donnell. Donnell has accounted for seven rushing touchdowns and 295 rushing yards on 47 carries. He's going to prove to be a threat to Rockwall's defense.

What To Expect:

Fans can expect a strong game from Rockwall's defense. They want this win probably more than anybody wants a win this week. They want to prove that their amazing start to the season and their win over Austin Lake Travis wasn't just a happy accident. Expect Rockwall to come out ready to show off.

HOOPS HIERARCHY: NoCro, Little Elm, Heritage Lead VYPE DFW B-Ball Rankings as League Play Intensifies

Matthew Ogle
17 Jan, 2026

As the boys basketball season moves past the midway point of district play, the latest VYPE Dallas-Fort Worth rankings showcase a mix of consistency at the top and rising teams making their mark.

North Crowley has cemented itself as the region’s top team, going 20-3 overall and undefeated in district action. The Panthers’ balance and depth have allowed them to remain steady through both non-district and early league tests. Close on their heels, Little Elm has surged to a 21-2 record, also unblemished in district play, continuing a season that has positioned the Lobos as strong contenders for a district crown.

THE STATUS: VYPE DFW Girls Basketball Rankings halfway through District; Ryan, Lancaster, SLC trending

Matthew Ogle
15 Jan, 2026

As district races begin to settle into rhythm, the latest VYPE combined girls basketball rankings reflect a landscape defined by momentum rather than margin. The second half of league play has arrived with contenders asserting themselves, challengers closing ground, and little room for complacency as postseason positioning quietly comes into focus.

Defending 5A Division I state champion Denton Ryan has surged to the top of the rankings, backing up its lofty status with a 24–4 overall mark and an unblemished district start. A recent statement win over fellow heavyweight Argyle further solidified the Raiders’ standing, though the Eagles remain firmly in the mix as one of the area’s most battle-tested groups.
