According to MaxPreps, Wylie placed 4th in their district bracket with a 5-3 record and will be looking to secure another bi-district championship title. Last year, Wylie and Rockwall were eliminated from playoffs during the second round so the stakes will be high for both teams! If the Yellowjackets are successful in beating the Pirates, they will move on to the area championship where they will face either Waxahachie or Midway. 

Rockwall-Heath
