Coppell looks to bounce back against Plano West on Friday after a 27-19 loss to Lake Highlands ended its four-game winning streak. The Cowboys are 5-2 overall and 3-1 in District 7-6A, where playoff spots remain up for grabs. They’ll need sharper execution on both sides of the ball: Coppell struggled to finish drives last week, while Plano West is coming off a 35-10 win.

By the Numbers
  • Coppell: 5-2 overall, 3-1 in District 7-6A.
  • Plano West: 3-4 overall, 2-2 in District 7-6A.
  • Plano West quarterback Blake Tevis threw for 273 yards and 3 touchdowns in the team’s 35-10 win over Richardson Pearce.
  • Six teams with 2 or fewer district losses are competing for 4 playoff spots.
Yes, But

Coppell has rarely lost district games in recent years, but its playoff position is not secure. Plano West has had an inconsistent season, yet its recent offensive showing makes it a meaningful test for a Cowboys defense coming off a loss.

What’s Next

Coppell hosts Plano West on Friday at Buddy Echols Field. The Cowboys will look to limit big plays, cut down on penalties and finish drives as the regular season approaches its end.

Bottom Line

Coppell’s path back to winning starts with execution—not scoreboard-watching. A sharper performance against Plano West could help keep the Cowboys in the playoff hunt.
