Tomorrow night’s (11/6) matchup between Cedar Ridge and Round Rock has only minimal playoff implications for Round Rock, and none to speak of for Cedar Ridge. Cedar Ridge is locked in as the #2 seed in 6A Division 2 while Round Rock is locked in as the #2 seed in Division 1, barring a massive Lake Travis collapse against Westwood.

So, what.

For starters, there are plenty of bragging rights at stake between these two Round Rock ISD foes, not to mention a chance to take some momentum into the postseason for both the Raiders and the Dragons when they meet in our final regular season VYPE Austin CenTex Game of the Week.

That may be especially true for Cedar Ridge (4-1, 8-1), who can flush a tough outing against Westlake with a win over the Dragons to accompany their earlier takedown of Lake Travis. Coach Bryan Vardeman’s Raiders will once again ride the arm of senior quarterback Dylan Snoga (124-188, 1,892 Yds., 22 TD, 2 INT) and a fleet of wide receivers led by senior Terrez Harrison (45-642, 14.3 YPC, 7 TD). Senior Devin Patterson (106-522, 4.9 YPC, 11 TD) has been the workhorse back with significant help from sophomore Deondre Crank.

Seniors Ayden Obrien Brown (96 T, 8.0 TFL, 5.5 Sacks), Jeremian Passmore (46 T, 13.0 TFL, 9.5 Sacks) and Powers Wallis (67 T, 5.0 TFL) lead a veteran unit that hopes to rebound from last week’s tough outing against the Chaps heading into the postseason.

Speaking of rebounding, head coach Cody Moore’s Round Rock squad is coming into the finale looking to bounce back from last week’s loss to Lake Travis. The Dragons (3-2, 6-3), who have notched quality non-district wins over powerhouses Vandegrift and Dripping Springs, will need to match those efforts against the Raiders.

Senior quarterback Dov Stickler (125-187, 2,060 Yds, 27 TD, 10 INT) has connected with senior receivers Dylan Jaeger (44-808, 18.4 YPC, 12 TD) and Simon Sylvain (41-770, 18.8 YPC, 7 TD) to power the passing offense. Senior Ryan Sirwaitis (110-597, 5.4 YPC, 5 TD) and sophomore Tyson Cummings (99-506, 5.1 YPC, 5 TD) share the rushing attack.

Senior Cooper Martinez (52 T, 2.5 TFL, 0.5 Sacks) and junior Ford Lucas (21 T, 8.0 TFL, 5.0 Sacks) anchor the Dragons defense.

Yes, a Cedar Ridge win coupled with an (unlikely) Westlake loss at Stony Point would give the Raiders a piece of the District 25-6A title, (albeit not the tiebreaker and top Division 1 seed). A Round Rock win, combined with an equally unlikely Lake Travis loss against Westwood, would vault the Dragons over the Cavs into a tie with Cedar Ridge for second in the district overall and, more importantly, give them the top seed in Division 2.

With the odds heavily against either a helpful Westlake or Lake Travis stumble, however, this one is more about tuning up and entering the playoffs on a high note.

Oh, and bragging rights, too.
