Class 6A Division I Semifinals Prosper (13-1) vs. Duncanville (14-0) 4 p.m. Saturday, Ford Stadium, Dallas Prosper will need to find something extra in its reserve against a Duncanville team which has reached the Class 6A Division I state championship game three times since 2018. The Panthers have played only one close game this season, and that was last week’s 28-21 win over Westfield. Duncanville beat Bryan (74-13), Wylie (41-0) and The Woodlands (35-3) prior to ousting Westfield. Duncanville will be looking to return to the Division I state title game for a second straight season after falling to North Shore, 17-10, in last year’s championship game. Duncanville also lost state title games to North Shore in 2018 and 2019. Prosper has won 10 consecutive games, including playoff wins over Plano (28-3), South Grand Prairie (38-26). North Crowley (35-21) and Lewisville (24-13). The Eagles’ only loss this year was against its District 5-6A rival — unbeaten Class 6A Division II state semifinalist Denton Guyer (23-6) on Sept. 13. The winner plays North Shore or Austin Westlake for the state title. North Shore (14-0) vs. Austin Westlake (14-0) 3 p.m. Saturday, Rice Stadium, Houston It’s hard to fathom it getting any better than this in the world of high school football playoffs. Winner of 54 consecutive games, Austin Westlake will have a chance for a fourth state title in as many years if it can get past a North Shore team seeking its fifth state crown since 2015. Last year, Westlake captured the Class 6A Division II crown, downing Denton Guyer, 40-21, while North Shore held off Duncanville, 17-10, in the Class 6A Division I title game. The last time Westlake suffered a defeat was Oct. 11, 2019, when it fell to rival Austin Lake Travis, 26-25. The Chaparrals have won each of their playoff games this year by no less than 31 points, including a 47-7 victory over San Antonio Brennan last week. North Shore — which manhandled Atascocita, 38-7, last week — has won 27 consecutive games and 73 of its last 76. The Mustangs captured Class 6A state titles in 2015 (against Westlake, 21-14, in overtime) along with crowns in 2018, 2019 and 2021, beating Duncanville each time. North Shore also lost to Westlake, 24-21, in the 2020 Class 6A Division I state semifinals. The winner plays Prosper or Duncanville for the state championship next week. Class 6A Division II Semifinals Denton Guyer (14-0) vs. DeSoto (12-2) 2 p.m., Saturday, Ford Center, Frisco Denton Guyer has done nothing but coast to impressive victories in each of its outings this fall. Among the Wildcats’ victims are district rival Prosper, a Class 6A Division 1 state semifinalist, which Guyer upended, 23-6. The Wildcats also coasted past perennial Class 5A power Aledo, 44-14. Guyer popped Southlake Carroll, 45-21, last week while DeSoto was even more convincing in a 60-24 thrashing of Killeen Harker Heights. DeSoto’s only losses this year are to Duncanville, 41-17, in a District 11-6A game on Oct. 28, and to nationally ranked St. Frances Academy (Md.) by a 41-7 score. Among DeSoto’s notable victories is a 42-23 triumph of Class 5A state semifinalist Dallas South Oak Cliff. DeSoto captured the Class 6A Division II state title in 2016, defeating Cibolo Steele, 38-29. Guyer won state titles at the Class 4A Division I level in 2012 and 2013. The winner will play Katy or Austin Vandegrift next week in the state championship game. Katy (14-0) vs. Austin Vandegrift (13-1) 1 p.m., Saturday, Alamodome, San Antonio Nine-time state champion Katy looks to enhance its storied history when the unbeaten Tigers battle talented Austin Vandegrift. The perennial power Tigers will try to reach a state championship game for the 16th time since 1994. Katy pulled away from C.E. King in the second half last week for a 56-34 win and were fueled by the running of Seth Davis, who scored six touchdowns and rushed for 241 yards. Katy has played two close games this season, but those came in Week 2 and 3 when the Tigers defeated Atascocita, 35-28, and Tompkins, 14-13. Katy’s most recent titles surfaced in 2020 (51-14 vs. Cedar Hill) and 2015 (34-7 vs. Lake Travis). The Tigers, who lost to Westlake, 45-14, last year in the Class 6A Division II state semifinals, have won 53 of their last 56 games. Vandegrift has won 13 consecutive games and defeated Dripping Springs, 27-24, last week after losing to the Tigers, 23-20, in the season opener. The Vipers stopped Dripping Springs on fourth-and-goal from the 1-yard line with 1:47 left in the fourth quarter last week to hang on for the victory. Vandegrift has now reached the state semifinals for the second time in school history after losing to Temple, 76-35, in the 2014 state semis. The winner takes on Denton Guyer or DeSoto in the state championship game next week.

My bad🙊

Harmony continues surprising postseason run with win in Class 3A Division II Regional Semifinals By Buck Ringgold-SBLIVE Harmony started the season dropping its first four football games. Now, the Eagles need one more win to make it to the final four in Class 3A Division II. Behind a stellar performance from junior quarterback Boston Seahorn, Harmony has kept its season going after outlasting West Rusk, 38-35, in the 3A Division II Region III semifinals Friday afternoon at Pine Tree’s Pirate Stadium. “(Harmony coach Jeremy Jenkins) said, just stick with it,” Seahorn said of the Eagles starting out 0-4. “No one ever did believe we were not going to the playoffs and not make it to the fourth round, but we believed it, mostly due to Coach Jenkins telling us that we should believe.” The Eagles (8-5) are now moving on to next week’s regional championship game, where they will face Newton, which held off Daingerfield, 16-12, in its regional semifinal on Friday night. Not a bad position to be in for Jenkins’ first season at the helm of the Eagles. And the play of Seahorn is a big reason why. Seahorn helped engineer an offense that accumulated 438 yards of total offense and 24 first downs. He was responsible for 355 of that, completing 14-of-19 passes for 188 yards and three touchdowns while adding 167 rushing yards on 33 carries and a TD. “The offense really morphed probably about a month ago; I started running him a lot, and our starting running back got hurt, too, and he’s out, so I started running (Seahorn) a lot and man, we didn’t know he was this tough and he’s powerful, too,” Jenkins said. “Once we started running him is when we really took off. He’s just all heart; he never comes off the field on defense, either, and he’s our punter. All heart.” Seahorn and the Eagles also weren’t fazed after being stopped on fourth down in their own territory early in the second half with a 24-14 lead. That led to West Rusk scoring a TD two plays later, cutting Harmony’s lead to three. But the Eagles had an answer. They marched 73 yards in 15 plays, taking 8:25 off the clock, which ended when junior Joe Morris took a jet sweep in from 7 yards out, as Harmony regained a 10-point advantage, 31-21, with 1:55 left in the third. On that pivotal drive, Seahorn had seven runs and was 3-of-4 passing. The Eagles also completed two fourth downs, the latter a 10-yard keeper by Seahorn down to the Raiders’ 7-yard line. “I’m telling you, that’s what we do,” Jenkins said. “We had five total possessions in the whole game last week and we scored a touchdown on every drive when there were 16, 14, 12, 11 (plays). “That’s what we do; we’re not real fast, and so we’ve got to control the ball, control the clock and use our advantages.” Harmony then forced a three-and-out, highlighted by a sack from linebacker Braxton Baker. The Eagles got the ball back after a punt and moved 65 yards in six plays, capped by Seahorn’s third TD pass, a 20-yard strike to receiver Tyson Jenkins, extending the lead to 38-21 with 8:41 left. “I’m going to be honest; they just trust in me and I just try to make them make sure they always trust me, so I just do whatever the coaches tell me to do,” Seahorn said. Seahorn had his first TD pass on the Eagles’ opening drive, a 12-yarder to Will Young to tie it at 7-all after West Rusk scored on its initial series. Later in the first quarter, Seahorn took a keeper 59 yards to the house to give Harmony its first lead of the day. West Rusk (10-3) answered three plays later on a 61-yard TD run from Tate Winings, tying the score at 14-all. But on the second play of the second quarter, Seahorn connected with Jenkins from 30 yards out, putting the Eagles back in front, 21-14. Harmony then extended it to 10 points, 24-14, on a 24-yard field goal from Tucker Tittle with 3:44 left in the opening half. Tyson Jenkins caught five passes for 97 yards, and Young hauled in six receptions for 70 yards. The Eagles also forced the game’s only turnover with less than four minutes to go, a fumble which was recovered by Harmony’s Jake Shannon. West Rusk senior quarterback Andon Mata completed 15-of-25 passes for 189 yards and four TDs. Two of those went to senior Jimmie Harper, including a 35-yard pass on the game’s final play. Mata also hooked up with senior Geremiah Smith from 55 yards out on the game’s fourth play from scrimmage, and a 31-yard TD early in the second half which got West Rusk within three, 24-21. In addition, Mata had 73 of the Raiders’ 98 yards on the ground. After starting the season with a losing streak, Harmony now prepares to continue a winning streak in the postseason, with a regional title at stake next week. “At the beginning of two-a-days, (Jeremy Jenkins) told us that his goal was to win the region, so we’re just trying to live up to that goal,” Seahorn said. “We stick through it, we fight through it thick and thin. We believe in each other and it’s got us this far, and we’re going to keep doing that.”
