Games This Week

WEST ORANGE-STARK over LIBERTY— If the Mustangs can beat the Liberty Panthers Friday, they will at least finish in a tie for the District 10-4A-II championship when the regular season ends next weekend. But the ‘Stangs had better not look past this week, because Liberty is hungry for a piece of that league title.

LITTLE CYPRESS-MAURICEVILLE over HUFFMAN—The Battlin’ Bears appear headed for the playoffs but must keep playing consistently to assure that feat. The Bears’ defense pitched a 21-0 shutout at Livingston last week and is hopeful of a repeat performance at Huffman Friday night.

BRIDGE CITY over LIVINGSTON-Both teams are searching for their first district victory, with the visitors anxious to post their first win of the long season.

ORANGEFIELD over WARREN—The Bobcats catch a winless Warren team in their final game of the year at F.L. McClain Stadium. Wins in the final two games will give the ‘Cats a respectable 6-4 overall season.

VIDOR over BAYTOWN LEE—Who would have thought the Pirates would be without a district victory going into the ninth game? Despite their murderous schedule, the Pirates can finish the season at .500 (5-5) with a pair of wins in the final two games.

SAN AUGUSTINE over DEWEYVILLE—The Pirates can throw a monkey wrench into the Wolves’ hopes for an undefeated district schedule. But they will have to play much better than in the last couple of games.

LAMAR over CENTRAL ARKANSAS (Upset Special)—The Cardinals could very well run into a buzz-saw on their trip to Arkansas Saturday. But the Redbirds are riding a three-game winning streak in which they were underdogs, so one more upset victory would be nice.

McNEESE STATE over SOUTHEASTERN LOUISIANA—The Lions have always been tough on the Cowboys and things don’t look any different this year at Hammond. The Pokes threw their helmets back into the race for the Southland Conference championship by upsetting favorite Central Arkansas 23-21 Saturday.
