The Argyle Eagles and Lovejoy Leopards will clash Friday at 7:00 p.m. in a playoff battle that promises fireworks. Argyle aims to extend their 12-game winning streak, while Lovejoy rides the momentum of five straight victories.

Argyle’s Dominance Continues
Argyle advanced with a commanding 52-35 victory over Walnut Grove in their last game. Running back Watson Bell led the charge with 109 rushing yards and two touchdowns, while the Eagles’ potent offense built a 45-21 lead by the third quarter, sealing the game. Argyle’s recent road success—five straight wins—has been fueled by an explosive attack averaging 46.4 points per game.

Lovejoy’s Narrow Escape
Lovejoy, meanwhile, survived a nail-biter against Anna, edging out a 52-49 win. Running back Ben Adams starred with 155 rushing yards and two touchdowns, averaging 7.4 yards per carry. Teammate Jacob Richard Janecek contributed 101 yards and three scores on the ground. Defensively, the Leopards excelled with three interceptions and standout performances from Aston Whiteside and Owen Magee, who combined for 26 tackles and a sack.

A Rematch with History
The two teams last met in September 2023, when Lovejoy dominated Argyle 42-14, effectively ending the game by halftime with a 35-0 lead. Argyle will look to avenge that loss and prove their growth since then, while Lovejoy hopes to replicate their earlier success.

With both teams in peak form and playoff stakes at an all-time high, Friday’s showdown is shaping up to be an epic battle between two Texas powerhouses.
