Raccoons dominate Heritage
Frisco’s only chance of taking the top seed from District 9-4A involved the Raccoons winning out after falling to Centennial earlier in the season.
Heritage didn’t stand in the way of that Friday night, as the Raccoons won a 51-9 rout of the Coyotes.
Junior fullback Matt Nollman tallied four touchdowns in the contest with two coming on the ground and another two coming courtesy of Battaglia’s arm.
The Raccoons now face a key district showdown at Prosper tonight at 7 p.m.
Lady Rangers highly regarded
The Lone Star girls basketball team is garnering plenty of preseason buzz.
The Lady Rangers earned a fifth-place ranking in the Texas Girls Coaches Association Preseason Poll on the heels of the 2012 season.
Key players such as Deja Snell, B’ria Wagner, Zoie Miller and Whitney Apari return for Lone Star.
Defending state champion Abilene Wylie tops the list with Krum, Kennedale and Lubbock Cooper rounding out the top five.
The Lady Rangers advanced to the second-round of the playoffs last season before a 48-37 loss to Celina spelled the end of their season. The Lady Bobcats also made the list with a tenth-place ranking.
Lone Star was victorious in Tuesday’s season opener, earning a 61-54 road victory against Frisco Heritage.
