Fourth-quarter comeback sees Celina score 21 straight, stun Lovejoy for bi-district win
LOVEJOY--- After finishing the regular season 9-1, the Lovejoy football team secured home-field advantage at Leopard Stadium to open the postseason against Celina. Lovejoy was able to secure and extend its lead throughout the contest until the script got flipped in the fourth quarter where Celina scored 21 straight to secure a 28-20 comeback victory. A constant force from start to finish, senior running back Evan Koehne carried the ball 33 times for 142 yards and a pair of touchdowns with both scores coming in the pivotal final frame. “It feels great. We worked a really long time for this,” said Koehne. “It was really important to us, it was a really good team and we were excited to go out there and beat them. “Being able to trust the defense is obviously great, to know that in the back of your mind they will always be there for us.” Although Celina (8-3) secured the comeback, the outlook was dreary throughout. Perhaps the most daunting moment, Lovejoy (9-2) was forced to punt but recovered a loose, live ball late in the third quarter. Junior Leopard quarterback Nixon Slaughter instantly found junior Luke Gahan with space for a 23-yard touchdown, pushing

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.
