Given their disadvantage in the MaxPreps state rankings, Wylie should expect quite the challenge on Friday. They will take on Horn in each of the teams' second playoff matchup at 4:00 PM. The stakes are high as the teams both are all in, each fighting to extend its postseason success.
Wylie weren't the first ones on the board last week, but they got there more often. They came out on top against McKinney by a score of 38-28. Senior Rashad Dixon was the offensive standout of the match for Wylie, as he rushed for 151 yards and 3 touchdowns on 18 carries. Dixon has now scored at least one touchdown in the past nine games.
Meanwhile, Horn might be getting used to good results now that the team has four wins in a row. They were able to grind out a solid victory over Temple, winning 45-38. This was a playoff match, so the win was all the more important for Horn (and all the more bitter for Temple).
Their wins bumped Wylie to 6-5 and Horn to 4-7. After the lofty point totals in their previous games, we'll see if they're able to heat things up even more while facing each other.
