Lafayette-area high school football scoreboard for Week 10

After a season filled with primetime matchups, blowouts and dogfights, the 2026 high school football season in Lafayette Parish and its surrounding areas has reached the end of the regular season. With Week 10 upon us, three teams remain in the hunt for finishing out a perfect season: Westgate, Eunice and Notre Dame.
