WHAT'S AT STAKE

The playoffs have come and that means there are no weak sisters remaining on the schedule.

Marshall (6-4) opens the playoffs with Crandall who enters the playoffs with an (8-2) record.

A Maverick win in the first round would likely have Midlothian Heritage (9-1) waiting in the second round of the postseason.

Defending state champion Dallas South Oak Cliff (6-3) or Lovejoy (7-3) would be up next for a likely region semifinal.  

The quarterfinals could include clashes with Everman, Melissa, or Texas High....all of which are (8-2).

Semifinals could include powerhouse Argyle (10-0), Emerson and Grapevine which are all (9-1).

Title game matchups could include juggernauts Fort Bend Marshall (9-1), Liberty Hill (9-1), and Lake Creek (10-0).  

No easy roads for anyone in the playoffs.
