MIDLAND, TX — In a game that decided the District 2-6A title, the Odessa Permian Panthers (7-2)(4-1) traveled to Grande Communications Stadium in Midland to do battle with the ever dominant Midland Legacy Rebels (8-1)(5-0) Friday night, Nov. 5, at 7 pm.

ABILENE, TX — With a playoff berth already in hand, the San Angelo Central Bobcats (3-6) (2-3) traveled to Shotwell Stadium in Abilene to take on the Abilene High War Eagles (6-3) (4-1) tonight, Nov. 4, at 7 p.m. Early turnovers by the Bobcats’ offense in conjunction with Abilene High’s high-octane offense made for an unfortunate combination for playoff-bound ‘Cats as they fall tonight, 49-14.

The Frenship Tigers defeated the Odessa High Bronchos 63-41 to guarantee a playoff berth for the San Angelo Central Bobcats.

Although the Bobcats’ defense played incredibly well all game, the offense’s inability to finish drives once inside Permian’s 20-yard line ultimately felled the Bobcats’ chances of a victory. Mojo won it, 21-7.

Following a string of losses that had to have left a bad taste in their mouth, the Bobcats finally claimed their first district win of the season, and did it in a dominating fashion.

Seeking their first district win of the season, the San Angelo Central Bobcats (2-3) (0-1) took on the Odessa High Bronchos at Ratliff Stadium tonight, Oct. 1, at 7 p.m.

A constant back and forth for most of the game turned sour for the Bobcats as two squandered possessions late in the contest handed the ‘Cats a loss on their district opener, 49-32.
