INSTANT CLASSICS: District battles jumble VYPE football rankings; photo gallery

It was a weekend of reckoning in Houston High School football as several district powers did battle.

No. 1 North Shore won a tight game against a physical Summer Creek team who will be dangerous in the Class 6A DII postseason. The 'Stangs looked solid and their defense is underrated.

Well, hello Klein Collins. Tomball Memorial was undefeated entering the weekend but the Tigers double-up the Wildcats in a District 15-6A classic. Next up for Tomball Memorial is a 5-1 Tomball.

Class 5A was a jumbled mess this weekend. Magnolia beat Magnolia West in the Mag Bowl, while FB Marshall lost to Texas City in a defensive battle. La Porte was dropped by Port Arthur-Memorial in district play.

Hitchcock remains atop the Class 4A-3A rankings, but Bellville, Iowa Colony and Columbus are also undefeated.

St. John's School shocked Episcopal in a game that went down to the last play, while Concordia Lutheran is finding its legs in big TAPPS.

….

HARD FLEX: Klein Collins showed who is boss of District 15-6A, beating undefeated Tomball Memorial 35-14 to take over the district race.

BIGGEST SURPRISE: Texas City knocked off FB Marshall in a defensive battle 15-6. The Stings are bringing the magic back. Texas City had a 98-yard interception return to seal the game.

PRIVATE SCHOOL LOOK IN: St. John's School beat Episcopal in a huge upset, 33-32, in an instant classic that came down to the wire.
