Highland Park Begins Another State Title Chase

Highland Park enters another season carrying the expectations that come with being one of the winningest programs in Texas high school football history.

The Scots reached the postseason again last year before their run ended with a 58-38 loss to Lone Star. Highland Park had previously rolled through its opening playoff games, scoring 47, 45 and 56 points in consecutive victories.

Among the players to watch this season is SMU pledge Buck Randall, one of the leaders of a Highland Park team that will try to make another run through the Class 5A ranks.

Saturday's opener should provide an immediate measuring stick against a Lewisville program accustomed to competing against some of the top teams in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.

Lewisville Brings Experience Into 2026

Lewisville finished 8-3 last season and returns 13 starters — six on offense and seven on defense — for head coach Michael Odle.

The Fighting Farmers' 2025 season ended with a 22-15 loss to Allen in the bi-district round of the Class 6A playoffs.

Lewisville and Highland Park have some recent history. When the teams met in 2023, the Scots built a 21-10 halftime lead and held on for a 21-18 victory.

With both programs opening their seasons and the game being played at The Star, Saturday's matchup provides an attractive early-season test for two teams with playoff expectations.
