2014 Week 15 Games

LUFKIN -- The Henderson Lions laid out a seemingly brilliant blueprint on how to defeat top-ranked juggernaut Navasota, getting off to a fast start and keeping the Rattlers' historically prolific quarterback-and-receiver duo out of the end zone for the first time all season. But in the end, a smothering Navasota defense and a surprising star in the Rattlers' backfield were too much for Henderson t

ROYSE CITY -- How much more can Mineola fans take before their hearts give out? They'll have to get through at least one more game. The Yellowjackets scored a go-ahead touchdown with 1:54 remaining in Saturday's Class 3A Division I quarterfinal and held a frantic Pottsboro drive 12 yards short for a 14-7 win at Royse City ISD Stadium.

SHENANDOAH -- Newton broke Rogers' scoring and points against averages to run away with Friday's Class 3A Division II, Region III championship playoff game, 32-7.

VAN -- First Leonard, then Howe, and now Gunter. The Waskom Wildcats continued their run of dominance against District 5-3A with a 49-15 victory Friday night over the Gunter Tigers in the Class 3A Division II Region II championship at Van’s Memorial Stadium.

PALESTINE — Alto, which never led in Friday's Class 2A Division I, Region III finale, was in prime position to break a 20-20 tie with Centerville with under five minutes to go. Instead, Centerville (10-4) capitalized on a fumble at its own 30-yard line and drove about 50 yards to set up Adrian Gaucin's game-winning kick with 1:27 left in the game for a surprising 23-20 victory ...

They probably walked away intrigued with the talent on display, especially a Lions' offense that put up 715 yards on th

ROYSE CITY -- Defending state champion Argyle extended its winning streak to 30 on Friday night, but not before holding off a spirited effort from upstart Liberty-Eylau. Argyle star running back Nick Ralston rushed for 214 yards and five touchdowns, and the Eagles survived Liberty-Eylau, 45-42, despite scoring just once in the second half of their Class 4A Division I state quarterfinal at Royse Ci

LONGVIEW -- The going was good for Gilmer. So good that its only turnover of the night resulted in Buckeye points. Gilmer quarterback McLane Carter threw just his second interception all season late in the first half of the Buckeyes' 64-25 rout of Atlanta, but a strip during the return and subsequent scoop and score by receiver Blake Lynch put an exclamation point on a 50-point first half that pro

TYLER -- With all the numbers that play into football, the number four was undoubtedly Tenaha's favorite number Friday night. Four years, four trips to the final four.
