Good game for Texas High headed towards the playoffs..45-21 . Starting D gave up 14 in the first half…played great in the 2nd half without the starting D End #0 out after getting banged up in the 2nd quarter…RB #4  was missed these passed couple of weeks, finished with 2 TD’s and 110 yards on the ground. 

Texas High has had this game circled for almost a year now after being upset at home last year.  They came out focused.  Big win and I think that clinches district #1 seed with 1 game left.

MT P is almost completely eliminated from playoffs now. They can't win a 3 way tie breaker. Their only chance is Whitehouse beating Marshall, PT upsetting TH and them beating Hallsville. PT almost pulled it out last year and obviously found an offense this week. So it's possible

Texas High 5-0
Whitehouse 4-1
Marshall 3-2
Pine Tree 3-2 
Mount Pleasant 2-3
Nacogdoches 1-5
Hallsville 0-5

Week 10 Scores
Texas High beat Whitehouse 45-21 (THS Clinches district title)
Marshall beat Nacogdoches 70-30 (Nac eliminated)
Pine Tree beat Mount Pleasant 41-14
Hallsville- OFF (eliminated)

Coming Up
Pine Tree Vs. Texas High 
Whitehouse Vs. Marshall
Hallsville Vs. Mount Pleasant

Texas High has clinched the district title.

Whitehouse will clinch the #2 seed with a win over Marshall.

A Marshall win over Whitehouse gives Marshall the #2 seed and WH the #3 seed.

Pine Tree has the #4 seed unless they beat THS, which would give them #3 if Marshall losses to Whitehouse.

District 7-5A
Melissa 6-0
Lovejoy 6-0
Denison 3-3
Crandall 3-3
Terrell 2-3 
Greenville 2-4
Princeton 1-5
Poteet 0-5

Melissa and Lovejoy are both (6-0) in district play and (9-0) and (8-1) respectively.   They will face off on Friday in the season finale to determine the district champion.

Terrell and Poteet will face off Saturday in a game delayed due to weather.  Terrell is favored and should win.  That will put them at (3-3) and in a three way tie for third place in the district race.

In finale week... Denison will face Poteet, Crandall will face Princeton, and Terrell will face Greenville.  All three will be favored and SHOULD finish in a three way tie for third at (4-3).

Head to head games between the three would create this tie breaker:

Denison +14
Terrell  +2
Crandall  -16

If Denison and Terell win....they are both in; Denison as the #3 and Terrell as the #4.

Crandall is out unless Denison or Terrell slip up.

Looked like a game in first half.  Texas High took complete control after half

Competitive game first half. TH is a solid team with great speed in running game and secondary.  WH doesn't stick with their best running back #8 in their game planning.  The starting QB ,Green for WH was hurt last two games and did not play and it showed in the game . He was finally replaced in 3rd qtr. TH should go 3-4 rounds on playoffs. WH maybe to round two if they don't play Melissa or Lovejoy in first. Really impressed with TH.

Melissa vs Lovejoy for district championship is Thursday night at Melissa. There will be some tickets available for anybody who wants to come witness what should be a great game.

That game may not be over until midnight with their offenses....lol.  Should be a fantastic game.

I need Marshall to repeat their upset from last year and pass on those two.  Denison or Terrell sounds marginally better.

The third quarter was about the best Texas High has looked on offense all season.    Overall the offense is a little less consistent than I would like for it to be, but even when they are not in peak form, they have several weapons on offense that can pop one for a quick TD.   #1, #3, #4, #13 and others are dangerous.   Defense can look great for stretches, and then let a receiver go uncovered for no apparent reason, or let a back take a quick toss and turn it up the sideline for 50 yards.

Who avoids Lovejoy/ Melissa loser. Playoff position could be important lol.

T High played a pretty clean game for the most part last night. I still think they have to take it one game at time going forward….the 3 sophomores in the secondary have gotten better each week but a team that throws the ball a lot could still hurt them if they aren’t ready to play.  #5 for Whitehouse was a good player, he was  able to get open on a few plays and kept them in the game in the first half.

Unless some weird things happen next week…

Pine Tree will likely take the Melissa/Lovejoy winner and Marshall would get the Melissa/Lovejoy loser. 

BUT…. If Marshall upsets Whitehouse they could snatch the # 2 seed and get the home playoff game and Whitehouse would have to go on the road.

If PT upsets THS we got a potential mess.  Depending on tie breakers could send Marshall home and get MP in.
