Overview
The race for the playoffs is in full swing as Vandegrift, Westlake, Hays, Leander and Vista Ridge all vie for the final three playoff spots. Hays’ playoff chances rest in its own hands, as it essentially controls its own destiny. A win over Vista Ridge or Vandegrift over the next two weeks secures a playoff berth. Wins over both teams would allow Hays to finish no worse than third place, giving them the district’s top seed in the 6A, Division II bracket. While the Lehman Lobos’ playoff chances are gone, the Lobos have the chance to play the role of spoiler. An upset win over Westlake would cast a wrench in the playoff engine, potentially giving Hays some hope of a second place finish in the district standings.
