HS Playoffs

What about 4-A?

I say FM Marcus holds their grown and lasts longer in the playoffs than Coppell

Would love to see a Marcus/Coppell playoff showdown. This is a multi-sport rivalry that goes back years...always good games, regardless of sport...

Region 1- Wichita Falls Rider
Region 2- Kilgore
Region 3- Friendswood
Region 4- Boerne Champion

Will be interesting to see how the two best teams in district 5-5A(Coppell, Marcus), which is supposed to be the strongest district in the state, match up against the two best from 6-5A (Belton, Midway). Belton and Midway both have great records and look good on paper, but you wonder about how tough their competition has been compared to the powerhouses from the northern metroplex suburbs. It would be a huge boost to Waco-area soccer if even one of those teams comes out on top. Doubt it will happen, but anything is possible.

Who are your favorites for 4A?

Coppell won 3-1 last night. Waco is a big team that relies on size and speed to make runs and score goals. They didn't move the ball around very well and didn't display much in terms of shape. We will meet the winner of the Midlothian/Hebron game in the next round. My pick is Midlothian.

Hebron defeats midlothian and then defeats coppell, just like in the past two years.

That's called overachieving becuase they lose in the next round...just like the last 2 years...

Not really. Last year they defeated Coppell in the first round and made it to the third round. Coppell Is weak in playoffs.

Agreed, Coppell left something on the table last year. If Hebron is lucky enough to get past Midlothian tonight, then it will be a good game in the next round.

Doubtful....took a glance at the regular season head-to-head scores from this season in district play. I see a NINE in the Coppell column in one of their games vs. Hebron. NINE.

Playoffs is a totally different thing. If not, ask Gonzaga.

I used that line earlier this week.

Woodwork, he doesn't have a dog in the Hebron race, just causing trouble...

In my oppinion Coppell doesn't get pass thru the third round.

Southlake Carroll advances with a 1-0 shutout oh El Paso Bel Air.

Looks like all those predictions of an early Southlake exit were a bit premature.

Duncanville 1 Flower Mound 0

Richland lost to Montwood 3-2 on PK's.

north mesquite 1 lake highland 0

Any upsets????

Jesuit over Rockwall 2 - 0, probably a mild upset
Marcus over Belton by at least 2
Highland Park is ousted by Sulphur Springs
Frisco Wakeland beats Heritage - mild upset
Arlington Sam Houston falls to El Paso Americas - didn't expect that.
Keller Central survives against San Angelo Central 1-0
Richland taken out in PK's by El Paso Montwood

mesquite poteet beat forney 5-4

I can't believe keller Central is still in it. Also I really thought that Sam Houston Would make it far this year.

Hebron beats Midlothian in OT. So in Region 1 only 2 out of 8 district winners are still playing (Southlake and Coppell). Crazy stuff.

Hebron will defeat Coppell.

Why cant believe, Keller Central still in it? Went through district with only one loss

Because in the past few years they weren't that good.
