Two Richardson ISD football teams are still playing. Lake Highlands and Berkner open the Class 6A Division II playoffs Friday night, while Richardson High and Pearce saw their seasons end Friday.
Lake Highlands hosts Haltom
Lake Highlands (8-2) went 7-0 in District 7-6A and won the district title, finishing the regular season with a 38-7 win over Richardson on Friday at Wildcat-Ram Stadium, the Lake Highlands Advocate reported. The Wildcats took the crown from the Eagles, who held it last season.
"I don't think a lot of people gave us a chance to be able to run the table here in 7-6A," Lake Highlands coach Cory Campbell told the Advocate.
The Wildcats stay home for the bi-district round, playing Haltom (5-5) at 7 p.m. Friday, Nov. 13, at Wildcat-Ram Stadium, according to the Associated Press schedule published by NBC 5.
