Plano (1-0) opened its season on Aug. 30 with a win against Odessa Permian at the Jerry Jones Classic in Frisco. The Wildcats then played Richardson last week, and held a 10-7 lead before the remainder of the game was canceled due to inclement weather.

Wildcat senior tailback Chance Culley is off to a great start, having amassed 307 yards on 33 carries along with three TDs. In the win against Permian, Culley rushed for 241 yards on 24 carries with two TDs.

McKinney (1-1) opened its season with a close 21-17 loss to Frisco Emerson. But last week, the Lions bounced back on the road with a 28-14 win against Garland Lakeview Centennial, breaking a 14-all score with a pair of fourth-quarter TDs.

The Lions were held to 94 yards of total offense, but got a 56-yard pick-six from Kaden Scoby that clinched the win in the fourth quarter. They also got a blocked punt and a long kickoff return to set up two other TDs.

SECOND QUARTER

- INTERCEPTION PLANO. Bradley Brown stops a potential McKinney scoring drive with a pick, and the Wildcats avert another Lion scoring threat.

- McKinney nearly had another long field goal to add to its lead, but a 47-yarder was missed late in the first quarter. Plano has the ball as the second quarter gets under way.

FIRST QUARTER

- INTERCEPTION McKINNEY: Plano drives in McKinney territory, but a pass is picked off by Nathan Hall near his own 15, and the Lions take over there.

- FIELD GOAL McKINNEY: Lions take the opening kickoff and march down to the Plano 30 before stalling. But Boston Stephens comes on to kick it from 48 yards out, and it is GOOD. (McKinney, 3-0 | 9:18, 1st)
