FIELD POSITION: 2026 VYPE DFW Football Rankings — Week 10 | Lancaster Enters the Frame, Waxahachie Delivers
All eyes are once again on Lewisville, which welcomed back signal-caller Laykon Brassfield after he was officially cleared to play by the UIL State Executive Committee. The Fighting Farmers subsequently battled past Flower Mound, 28-18, to improve to 5-0 in District 5-6A.
Meanwhile, Lancaster (6-2) can no longer be overlooked, making its Top 20 debut after an authoritative 55-14 victory over Burleson Centennial. Having suffered its lone district loss to DeSoto, the Tigers now have an opportunity to all but secure the district's second seed when they travel to Midlothian this week.
Speaking of pivotal district battles, unbeaten Anna (8-0) squares off with Celina (7-1) this Friday in a highly anticipated showdown that will determine the District 4-5A Division II champion.
The playoff picture is taking shape, but the final weeks promise plenty more movement before the postseason bracket is set.
