The team will look to utilize an aggressive defense on Thursday against Melissa.
Melissa Cardinals (9-0, 6-0)

Shutting down their non-district opponents in three huge victories against Argyle (50-14), China Spring (63-33), and Royse City (39-7), the team was prepared for anything as they headed into their district schedule.

What To Expect

Fans can expect this team to do whatever it takes to set the tone early.
