Games This Week

WEST ORANGE-STARK (12-0) over WIMBERLEY (13-1) 7:30 p.m. Friday at Legacy Field in Katy—It appears that either the Mustang offense is getting weaker or the opponents’ defense is better each week. I like the second choice better. The Mustangs have been riding the talent of their Chain Gang Defense and need to get their offense humming again after blanking Salado 14-0 last week. Wimberley came on strong in the last quarter to overpower undefeated Cuero, the same thing that happened several years ago when the Mustangs faced them. The winner of this game meets the winner between a pair of undefeated teams—Graham and Pleasant Grove.

NEWTON (13-0) over Boling (9-3) 7:30 p.m. Friday at Texas Drive Stadium in New Caney—The Eagles have been grinding up opponents after taking care of Waskom Friday night. Boling beat Lexington 35-21 to advance to the state semifinals.
