Lone Star keeps rolling
When Frisco Lone Star and Van Alstyne met last season, the Rangers were handed a 37-14 loss.
Lone Star got even Friday night with a 56-21 victory from FC Dallas Stadium in Frisco.
The gunslinger also added 22 yards and a score on the ground to lead Lone Star’s revenge game.
The Rangers began the game strong with a pair of Campbell touchdowns in the first quarter en route to a 35-7 halftime lead.
The victory was Lone Star’s fourth in as many games this season and the Rangers will look to make it a 5-0 mark after traveling to Anna tonight for a 7:30 p.m. kick off.

Americans sign another forward
The Allen Americans inked forward Ryley Grantham to a deal for the 2012-13 season Friday.
The 24-year-old Grantham, who was selected in the sixth round (161st overall) of the 2008 NHL Entry Draft by the Calgary Flames, played for first-year Allen head coach Steve Martinson with the Chicago Express of the ECHL last season. Grantham had 11 points and 75 penalty minutes.
“Ryley is a tough, physical forward with great hands,” Martinson said. “I expect him to score goals, make plays and be a tough forward to play against.”
The 6-foot-3, 210-pounder played junior hockey for three seasons with the Moose Jaw Warriors of the Western Hockey League. Grantham then moved to the ECHL, playing for the Gwinnett Gladiators and Utah Grizzlies. Grantham also played 89 games with the Abbotsford Heat of the AHL.
Grantham may head back to that level as he has been invited to training camp with the Houston Aeros, the AHL affiliate of the Minnesota Wild.
