The district’s other remaining teams finished their playoff runs Friday. Reedy lost 10–4 to Amarillo, and Lone Star fell 10–1 to Abilene Wylie, according to the district.

Centennial’s postseason path has included victories over Birdville, Hallsville, Highland Park, Midlothian and Frisco High. Its closest match was a 10–9 win over Highland Park.
