The No. 2 seed Pilot Point Bearcats football team rolls into the playoffs for an opening round matchup against the No. 3 seed West Trojans at Herman Clark Stadium in Fort Worth on Thursday.
The Trojans finished with a 7-3 overall record but finished the regular season with back-to-back losses, falling to Grandview 49-30 on Oct. 31 and Whitney 41-28 on Nov. 7.
“They’re a well-coached football team,” said Chad Worrell, Pilot Point athletic director and head football coach. “Coach [David] Woodard has been there for a long time. They play hard, and they’re huge. That’s the first thing that jumps out at you on film. … We’re going to have to rely on our quickness against a bigger team like this.”
