Longview is on a roll after a high-stakes playoff matchup on Friday. They walked away with a 23-13 win over Naaman Forest. Given the Lobos' advantage in MaxPreps' Texas football rankings (they are ranked 18th, while the Rangers are ranked 344th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
One reason for the win was Longview's imposing defense, which managed to get into the backfield for five sacks. Kason Brooks was particularly dangerous to the passing game, picking up three himself. Another thorn in Naaman Forest's side was Brenden Reese, who picked up a sack and made 11 total tackles (3.0 for loss).
Meanwhile, even if it wasn't a dominant performance, Lancaster beat Harker Heights 40-35 on Friday.
Longview's record now sits at 9-2. As for Lancaster, their record is now 5-6.
Longview couldn't quite finish off Lancaster in their previous meeting back in November of 2023 and fell 27-24. Can Longview avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
