Dallas Highland Park at Carrollton Creekview at Standridge Stadium
Highland Park goes on the road again in district play, riding a 3-game winning streak. The Scots sit alone in District 6-5A Division I and will face a 1-5 Creekview team. Interestingly enough, both teams are coming off wins against Carrollton R.L. Turner. The Mustangs beat Turner, 21-7, two weeks ago and were idle last week. Highland Park posted a 62-7 win last week against Turner. Got to give the edge to the Scots in this one.
Allen at Prosper Rock Hill at Children’s Health Stadium
Allen will roll into this game as the new No. 1 team in Class 6A in the Dave Campbell’s Texas Football/Associated Press, and MaxPreps has the Eagles ranked the No. 1 team in the entire country. The Eagles (6-0, 3-0 District 6-6A) are led by sophomore quarterback Ty Snell, who has thrown for 1,155 yards with 18 touchdowns and only two interceptions. Rock Hill is 3-3 and 1-2 in district, losing the past two against Prosper Walnut Grove and Prosper.
Denton Ryan at Keller Fossil Ridge at Keller ISD Athletic Complex
After two weeks of District 3-5A Division I play, the Raiders from Billy Ryan High School are in first place with a 2-0 mark. Five teams are 1-1, while Saginaw is winless. The Raiders, 5-1, will travel to face a 1-5 Fossil Ridge squad. Ryan has won four in a row, with the first of that streak a loss that was flipped to a win following the Lewisville eligibility issue. New coach Shane Tolleson, who came over from Waxahachie, will look for the Raiders to extend their 7-game winning streak against the Panthers.
Friday, Oct. 16
Carrollton Hebron at Lewisville at Max Goldsmith Stadium
The winner of this game will have a share of first place in the District 5-6A race. The two teams, along with Denton Braswell, are tied for first place with 3-0 district marks. Even with changes in personnel on the offensive side of the ball at quarterback, Lewisville (3-3, 3-0) is still producing. Six different players have at least one touchdown catch and seven different players have scored a rushing touchdown — though no rushing touchdowns were scored in last week’s 42-7 win over Guyer. Hebron (4-2, 3-0) has a defense that has 6 interceptions and 10 forced fumbles this season.
Red Oak at Waxahachie at Stuart B. Lumpkins Stadium
The District 11-6A standings heading into this week show North Crowley at 3-0 and then four teams at 2-1 — including the two in this matchup. Waxahachie fell from No. 1 to No. 10 in the state poll this week following a 42-17 loss to North Crowley last week. The Indians struggled to pass the ball last week and the run game was also bottled up by North Crowley. Red Oak went 5-5 last year, but is 4-2, and its last two wins were by a combined 4 points. QB Tuhran Square II should surpass the 1,000-yard passing mark this week, entering with 971 yards and 11 TDs. The senior is also the team’s leading rusher with 455 yards and 2 TDs.
Fort Worth All Saints Episcopal at Grapevine Faith at Grapevine Ford Field
The Saints take a 6-2 record into their penultimate game of the regular season at Grapevine Faith. The winner of the past two TAPPS Division II State Championships might be even better this year; if not, they are deeper. Running back Brayden Boults, a transfer from Sumter, South Carolina, has run for 1,074 yards and 13 TDs. The sophomore has offers from Georgia, Texas Tech, Florida and SMU, to name a few. Both teams are coming off wins against Fort Worth Southwest Christian. All Saints won 56-13 while Grapevine Faith won 56-35 on Oct. 2. The Lions are coming off a bye week and will look to snap a 4-game losing streak to All Saints.
Mansfield Summit at DeSoto at Eagle Stadium
There is a new all-time rushing leader at DeSoto RB SaRod Baker eclipsed the career rushing mark set by current Texas A&M running back Deondrae “Tiger” Riden Jr. in last week’s win vs. Lancaster. The Texas Tech pledge ran for 177 yards and 2 touchdowns last week — his fourth straight game over 100 yards and with at least one touchdown. He has 4,546 yards in his career, clearing Riden’s 4,412 yards. DeSoto is 4-2 with four straight wins. Mansfield Summit is 3-3 and winners of two in a row. Sophomore WR Gabe Evans has caught 33 passes for 395 yards and 6 TDs.
Aledo at Arlington at Maverick Stadium at UT-Arlington
A logjam for second place in District 3-6A will be somewhat settled after this game, as both are 2-1 in district games. Arlington is 4-2 and Aledo is 3-3 — very unlike the Aledo of old. The Bearcats are balanced, with a rushing game that has gained 986 yards and the offense has passed for 933 yards. Colby Thompson and Kane Lanier both have 4 receiving touchdowns. The Arlington Colts have been more of a running team this year, with five different players with more than 100 yards on the ground. QB Canon Cambron has 327 yards rushing and 9 TDs, team highs in both categories.
Crowley at Duncanville at Panther Stadium
Crowley is coming off a 29-28 loss last week against Red Oak. The Eagles are 2-4 overall and 1-2 in District 11-6A. Dating back to 2004, this is the first showdown between the two teams. Duncanville won last week, 45-7 over Mansfield, to even the record at 3-3. Quarterback Maximus The Great Denson has thrown for 804 yards and 8 touchdowns, while rushing for 308 yards. RB Brayden Arnold has accounted for 9 of the team’s 17 rushing touchdowns.
Keller at Southlake Carroll at Dragon Stadium
The Indians have surpassed the win total of last year and at 6-0, it is the best start since 1967. Quite the turnaround done by Coach Carl Stralow, but a big challenge looms this week: the Dragons. Keller has an overall record better than Carroll’s 4-2 mark, but the Dragons have won four in a row since losing back-to-back games to North Crowley and Allen. Both teams are 3-0 in District 4-6A, so the battle for first place could also secure a No. 1 seed for the winner. Carroll holds a 16-0 record in the series dating back to 2004.

Lewisville's Devin Robinson (0) celebrates after returning an interception for a touchdown against Denton Guyer on Friday.
Jeff Rayome
The quest for the District 5-6A title is far from over, but some of the contenders for one of the four playoff berths are coming into focus after Week 7.
After another week of Texas high school football action, three teams are still unbeaten in district play: Denton Braswell, Carrollton Hebron and Lewisville. At least one of those teams will lose this week as Hebron and Lewisville battle for a share of first.
It will be another big game for the Fighting Farmers, who are now 3-3 overall after a 41-7 win over Denton Guyer last week.
Guyer, at the time, was ranked No. 10 in Class 6A.
The win helps the Farmers crack the national Top 25 on MaxPreps.
Lewisville and Guyer were tied at 7-7 after the opening 12 minutes.
The Fighting Farmers dominated from there and the story of the game was how opportunistic they were on offense, defense and special teams.
It started in the first quarter.
Missouri State pledge Derrick Martin IIII had an interception to give Lewisville the ball.
A mere 9 seconds later, the Farmers were in the end zone. Quarterback Aiden Evans connected with Xavier Miles for a 41-yard touchdown.
The Wildcats (4-2, 1-1) had the ball four times in the second quarter and the outcomes were: punt, punt, interception, missed field goal. Meanwhile, Lewisville extended the lead to 28-7.
A wide receiver-to-wide receiver touchdown pass from Duece Mathis to Martin was the first touchdown of the second quarter.
Mathis, a Northern Arizona pledge, had a 73-yard punt return to extend the lead.
Then, Devin Robinson had a 37-yard pick-6 for the Farmers’ defense. The senior is a Sam Houston State pledge.
Guyer, who had previously only lost to then No. 1-ranked Waxahachie, got the ball to open the third.
The drive lasted 4 minutes, but Vahn Malvo picked off Carter Morgan to give the Farmers the ball back.
Then, Lewisville scored again.
But not before 17 players were run and all but the final 38 seconds of the quarter ticked away. Evans, another Sam Houston State pledge, connected with Landon Brazzell for a 15-yard touchdown. That came one play after a 15-yard penalty against Guyer.
Lewisville was facing a 3rd-and-17 from the 30-yard line.
The what-could-go-wrong-did-go-wrong for Guyer continued in the fourth.
The Wildcats punted and Mathis took back 68 yards for his second punt return score of the game.
Guyer got some traction going and put together a 75-yard drive. Morgan ran for 18 yards and was near the goal line. The ball got knocked out at the 1-yard line and turned into a touchback and the Farmers got the ball at the 20-yard line.
Guyer actually had more yards and first downs in the game, 20 to 15 on the latter and then 380 to 272 on yards.
The difference was 5 turnovers by the Wildcats — 3 interceptions and 2 fumbles.
