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. This week, those teams will have an even bigger target on their back with district titles and all the regular season glory also on the line. On the flip side, some teams are focused on securing a win as they look to keep their postseason dreams alive with the 2026 Allstate Sugar Bowl LHSAA Prep Classic around the corner. For Breaux Bridge and Highland Baptist, this week is one last chance to crack the goose egg in the win column as both teams enter the week winless. As district champions look to be crowned, and the race to the postseason continues to heat up, every win means a little more for teams across the 337. Here are the matchups happening across the area in Week 10. Check back here to see live score updates. Thursday, Nov. 5 Lafayette area high school football scoreboard .oembed-frame { width: 100%;

If Cecilia football wanted a share of the Class 4A District 5 championship, it knew it had to put on a show in Week 10 against Carencro. The Golden Bears sat atop the district for most of the season but the Bulldogs were determined to make room for themselves, taking a 51-22 victory and forcing a three-way tie for the district championship between themselves, Carencro and Opelousas. “This win means a lot,” Cecilia quarterback Layne Champagne said. “We came up short in the Opelousas game, and we told ourselves all week that we were coming for this game, and we’re gonna bit back. We showed them what we got tonight.” From the first play, forcing a fumble on kickoff, to a backbreaking pick six in the fourth quarter, Cecilia didn't leave this game to chance as it closed out the regular season with a win. Cecilia knows how to put on a show If it a district championship on the line wasn’t enough incentive for the Bulldogs, it was also senior night.
