2A Division I: Hawley (15-0) vs. Refugio (14-1) - 11:00am

This game will be a lot of fun from a prospect standpoint, as Hawley features a true game-changer in 2024 ATH Chandlin Myers (6'2, 175). The Texas Tech commit is a major playmaker at wide receiver and will lock down the field at cornerback. 

Refugio has one of the fastest players in the country rostered in 2024 WR Ernest Campbell (5'8, 150). He won the 2A Divison I 100-meter dash with a blistering 10.32. Campbell has already picked up scholarship opportunities from Baylor, Houston, Sam Houston, TCU, Colorado, Louisville, Oregon, Penn State and Syracuse. 2024 ATH Isaiah Avery (6'1, 170) is another name to note. 

3A Division II: Gunter (15-0) vs. Poth (14-1) - 3:00pm

Gunter has a trio of prospects to keep an eye on. 2024 WR/DB Cannon Lemberg (6'0, 170) burst onto the scene with a sensational showing in the Texas State 7v7 and has earned an offer from Marshall. 2023 ATH Ethan Sloan (5'9, 160) has an offer from Campbell, and you'll hear his name called over the loudspeaker often. 2025 S Colin Peacock (6'1, 170) earned playing time on last year's state title team and has only improved. 

Poth 2023 LB/RB Matthew Bunn (6'1, 210) is a hard-nosed football player who has been selected to play in the San Antonio Sports All-Star Game in January.  

3A Division I: Brock (11-4) vs. Franklin (15-0) - 7:00pm

Brock always gets it done up front, and this year is no exception. 2024 OL/DL Brock Riker (6'4, 260) has kicked out to left tackle after playing inside the past two seasons, and it has allowed him to showcase his overall athleticism and 78-inch wingspan. SMU has shown early interest. 2024 DL/OL Hunter Fay (6'3, 260) will be the most powerful on the field, and he's camped at North Texas, Texas Tech and Michigan State. 

Franklin 2023 ATH Bryson Washington (5'11, 195) will be the day's most recognizable college prospect, as he has already verbally committed to Baylor over many impressive offers. The two-way high school star was the MVP of last year's state title win and will significantly impact this game. 2024 S Devyn Hidrogo (6'1, 180) is a prospect on the rise who will have plenty of offers to consider by the time National Signing Day rolls around next year. He's a multi-sport athlete with an impressive frame and verified speed. Iowa State has offered.
