As South and West Asian populations grow in DFW, high school football teams are starting to reflect those changes.
I spoke with area players and experts to get a sense of how they've come to embrace a sport that's expanding in their communities.

During an Oct. 9 game between The Colony and Community High School in Nevada, Robby Covington Jr., a quadriplegic who has spent his life in a wheelchair, scored a touchdown that was an inspiring reminder of what makes #txhsfb special. 🏈

Texas coaching icon Freddie James, has died at 89.
His 1988 Carter team, despite being stripped of its title, is considered by many to be the greatest Texas high school football team of all-time.

IMO school admin needs to have some tough discussions on if they even want to continue their football program going forward #txhsfb

Gateway will take a forfeit loss, this is the 4th game Gateway has canceled this year #txhsfb

Today marks my final day with DeSoto ISD. I’m grateful for the opportunity to lead a district with such a rich legacy of athletic excellence and championship tradition.
Thank you to the coaches, student-athletes, colleagues, and the entire DeSoto community for the relationships built, the lessons learned, and the memories made. It has been an honor to be part of the Fighting Eagles family.
As I turn the page to my next chapter, I leave with gratitude, respect, and faith in what’s ahead.

JUST IN: The UIL state executive committee has denied the eligibility appeal of Southlake Carroll baseball star Luke Esquivel by a 4-2 vote.
He was initially ruled ineligible by the district committee in September.

A true GUT-CHECK victory for the 49ers. That young defense had to dig deep, and the rookie Romello Height — club on broken hand — delivered. So did many of his teammates.
This injured 49ers' team can certainly use reinforcements. But they're 6-0, and they're tough

The 49ers win an all-timer in Seattle. An ugly fistfight between two NFL titans. Somehow (and that somehow has a lot to do with Mike Evans), Brock Purdy pulled through to come back against an insanely good defense down to his final straw of weapons at WR.
Also: the 49ers' defense might be growing into a bona fide Super Bowl defense in front of our eyes
