Game of the Week

PITTSBURG -- The ETSN.fm + Dairy Queen Game of the Week looked like it would be a game after all when Dalton Warrick found a broken Henderson zone and caught a 29-yard touchdown pass from Jaylon Jimmerson. That play was an affirmative. If Pittsburg could find the holes in the opposing defense, it could compete against a team with a skyrocketing stock. It never came that easy again.

Through a couple weeks of the regular season, two of the most impressive teams in East Texas have been Henderson and Pittsburg. And on Friday, they hook up in the ETSN.fm/Dairy Queen Game of the Week. Kickoff is scheduled for 7:30 p...

NACOGDOCHES -- Lufkin capitalized on its big-play capabilities, and forced a key turnover early in the second half to pull away from its oldest rival Friday night. The Panthers went on a run of 21 consecutive points in the second and third quarters, and earned a 42-28 victory over Nacogdoches in the ETSN...

NEW LONDON -- It was the single most important game within East Texas. Unfortunately, rain hurt the final product. No bands, no halftime and two lightning delays of more than an hour apiece took away the pageantry. But a football game was still played Friday at Bruce Bradshaw Stadium in New London. And still-undefeated Waskom ran away with it, 40-0, to take control of District 8-3A Division II in

PITTSBURG -- Liberty-Eylau was tabbed in the preseason to win District 7-4A Division I and to have an opportunity at much, much more. But that was before first-year head coach Brad Baca and the Pittsburg Pirates got their early say, and they started the season 6-0. What had been circled as a relatively easy win for the Leopards in the preseason suddenly was being advertised as the best overall gam

MARSHALL -- When Marshall alum Clint Harper was hired to lead the Mavericks program prior to the 2013 season, the objective was clear: restore Marshall to its winning ways and beat Longview. Three years into the Harper era, the Mavs appear well on their way to recapturing past glory after their 28-25 victory over arch-rival Longview on Friday night at Maverick Stadium, Marshall's first win over th

ELYSIAN FIELDS -- The rumors of Waskom's demise were greatly exaggerated. The defending Class 3A Division II state champion handled Elysian Fields at Jacket Stadium on Friday, 45-0. Elysian Fields was generally favored to win the two teams' District 8-3A Division II in statewide preseason publications.
