Austin Westlake Advances In Bi-District Round Of UIL 6A Division II Playoffs: Texas High School Football

Thursday night is the opening night of the University Interscholastic League high school football playoffs across Texas.

One of the state’s top teams, and premier programs, was involved in the opening night of postseason play, as Austin Westlake played host to Buda Hays Consolidated in the 6A Division II bi-district round. It was all Chaparrals as they scored 42 points by halftime in an eventual 45-0 victory on their home field.

The Chaparrals (10-1) finished the regular season 9-1 and claimed the outright District 25-6A championship with a 6-0 record. Last season, they finished 7-4 and didn’t get out of the bi-district round, unusual for a program that has made 12 title-game appearances and has claimed four state championships.

But this time, the Chaps will make it to at least the area round, which will be next week. They will play San Antonio Pieper, which defeated San Antonio Churchill, 21-9, in its bi-district game on Thursday.
