The penultimate week of the high school football season has arrived.
Two teams from the Texas Panhandle are still alive as the state semifinals begin on Thursday, with Gruver and West Texas each playing on Dec. 11.
The Greyhounds meet Muenster in a rematch of last year’s Class 2A Division I state semifinal contest that saw the Hornets take down Kurt Haberthur’s team 49-26. Brady Carney’s squad, lead by dual-threat quarterback Casen Carney, would go on to beat Shiner in the UIL title game.
This year, Gruver gets another shot at Muenster after taking down District 1-2A Division II rival Stratford 19-14 in the Region I-2A Division II championship game. In that contest, the Greyhounds avenged a 40-27 loss from the regular season.
Gruver defeated Lockney, Wink and Ropes before downing the Elks to reach the state semifinals.
In Class 2A Division I, the Comanches continue their remarkable campaign against Hamilton. West Texas is 14-0 on the year, and has a chance to reach the state title game for the first time in school history with a win against the Bulldogs.
This season marks the second state semifinal appearance for West Texas, with the last coming in 1995. To reach this point, Jeff Smith’s team has earned a number of impressive victories, including wins against Gruver and Panhandle in the regular season.
In the playoffs, Comanches’ star signal caller Cayde Winters and company have taken down Abernathy, Hawley, New Home and Cisco to reach the fifth round.
