Plano City Council approved $42,000 for pre-construction under a construction manager-at-risk contract on Monday, with $42 million as the maximum budget for a new Police Training Center, moving the city a major step closer to replacing a facility that has sat untouched since 1990. The new 33,000-square-foot building will take over for the current 21,904-square-foot center along 14th Street, making it about 1.5 times the size of the existing center.

Frisco runs over Heritage for bi-district win
FRISCO – The Frisco football team utilized an old-fashioned, ground-and-pound rushing attack to beat Colleyville Heritage 37-27 in a Class 5A Division II bi-district playoff game at the Ford Center on Friday. Senior Brennen Lacey ran for 109 yards and two touchdowns to lead the way for Frisco (8-3), as the Raccoons amassed 354 yards on the ground. “We like to run the ball and it was a matter of controlling the line of scrimmage,” said Frisco head coach Jeff Harbert. “Establishing the ground game is something we knew we had to do in order to win.” With both teams struggling early on offense, Heritage (6-5) scored the only points in the first quarter on a 30-yard field goal by Andrew Roy. Frisco ripped off 17 unanswered points in the second quarter, with senior J’Siah Watson’s 100-yard interception return for a touchdown giving the Raccoons a 17-3 lead with just under four minutes remaining in the first half. Senior Lowery Asel gave Frisco its first lead at 7-3 with his 66-yard touchdown run early in the second quarter, and his 25-yard field goal increased the lead to 10-3 before Watson’s pick-six. “Winning the turnover battle is always key,” said Harbert.
