For the past three years Denison has been
eliminated in the third round of the Texas
High School Football Playoffs,...but today Denison
defeated Marshall 35 to 26 in a game played
at Hanby Stadium in Mesquite.
Denison trailed the Mavericks 19-7 at the
half, but came back to outscore Marshall
28-7 in the second half. It will be the first
time in the quarter-final round of the playoffs
since 1997 for the Yellow Jackets. There are
only eight 4A schools still playing football after
today. Next round will be the Regional II
Championships and Denison will face off
against Sulphur Springs, a team that ended
the Yellow Jackets playoff run last year.
Sulphur Springs defeated Frisco Liberty
33-31 in the other Regional Semi-Final
playoff game. Denison plays Sulphur
Springs next Saturday at 2pm at Ford
Stadium on the campus of S.M.U.
Great Comeback Jackets !!
