FLOWER MOUND – The Marcus football team saved its best for last on Thursday night, scoring 21 unanswered fourth-quarter points to defeat Frisco Wakeland 35-24 at Marauder Stadium and earn its first District 5-6A victory of the season. Running back Drew Emmert rushed for 184 yards and four touchdowns on 30 carries, while quarterback Cash Davis completed 20-of-24 passes for 219 yards and a touchdown as the Marauders (3-7, 1-6) snapped a six-game losing streak.

The Marauders recovered an onside kick, setting up Emmert's 7-yard touchdown run with 2:51 left. Emmert added a 20-yard scoring run just over a minute later to extend the lead to 35-17.

Nov. 13 marks the first day of non-district games for UIL boys basketball programs, officially putting the 2026-27 season in full swing. Last season saw programs like Frisco Heritage and Little Elm make history by winning the first state championships in their respective histories. Both teams graduated sizable senior classes, while other area squads look to make their own push towards hoisting a UIL title by season’s end. Several of those programs have generated some early buzz for 2026-27 as part of the Texas Association of Basketball Coaches' preseason state rankings. Class 6A 1. Allen Ranked atop 6A to begin the season, the Eagles are coming off a 24-7 campaign that produced a District 6-6A championship and an appearance in the regional finals. Allen has advanced at least three rounds deep in the playoffs each of the past three seasons, including a state semifinal run in 2025, and it’ll navigate its 2026-27 campaign with four of its top six scorers from last season back in the fold. The Eagles graduated the all-state production and leadership of guard Nehemiah Lawrence and will look players like all-region guard and senior Cadarian Urune-Williams, a Lamar commit, to help pick up that slack.
