Non-District

What's Ahead
Opening district play last week, the Falcons traveled to Mesquite and recorded a statement 20-16 victory over Mesquite Horn. Last season, Horn defeated North Forney in a 35-25 battle. The Falcons went into Friday's game never ready to show any signs of giving up during difficult moments.

The team also had notable moments from Aamii Branch, Andikan Asuquo, Kasen McCoy, Jaquarian Robinson, and more.
Led by a determined group of athletes, the Falcons are headed into a second district game against a 2-2 Royse City in what will be Royse City's first district game of the season. Looking to continue their hot streak, the team can be expected to come out energetic with a passion to win.
