The Archer City Wildcats (4-4) just might be the most dangerous four seed in the Class 2A, Division 1 playoff bracket. They still have a matchup with the Munday Moguls this Friday night, but they will be heavily favored to lock down a playoff spot with a fourth place finish in District 7.

In a game that was rescheduled a week later, Windthorst defeated Archer City 25-14, 258, 25-5, to complete an undefeated run through district on Friday, Oct. 27.

Windthorst began its quest for back-to-back state titles with a dominant three-set bi-district win over DeLeon in Mineral Wells on Monday, Oct. 30.

Archer City put up a fight against Hico in its bi-district match on Tuesday, Oct. 31, in Weatherford, but had its season come to an end at the claws of the Tigers.

While the Lady Eagles still have the gold ball trophies from the most recent postseason runs, many of the players who won those trophies have graduated. In fact, just four players are back on the Holliday roster from last year’s trip with many getting their first taste of the postseason in Tuesday night’s bi-district match.

Sometimes it’s more than a football game. When Archer City and Windthorst squared off on Friday night, football was the last thing on either communities’ mind after a Windthorst student was tragically killed in a car accident mere hours before kickoff.

The Archer City Lady Cats won a competitive five-set match at Olney on Tuesday, Oct. 24.

Holliday’s stranglehold on Region I-3A continues. The Eagles and Lady Eagles punched their tickets to the UIL State Cross Country Meet on Thurs., Nov.

Holliday’s reign continues. After losing more than 10 seniors to graduation a season ago, few predicted the Lady Eagles to be in position to run the table in district action.
