Rockwall County Gameday – Gridiron Glory Playoff Update
In the opening week of playoffs, our local football teams set the stage for what promises to be an exciting postseason. The first games were a mix of nerves and excitement, as teams squared off against tough opponents. We saw incredible determination and solid teamwork, reminding us why we love this sport. Take a look at how each ROCO team performed and what’s next for them! 👀
Rockwall
On Friday, the Rockwall Yellowjacket Football Team went head-to-head with the Wylie Pirates. Rockwall entered this match with an 10-1 record and Wylie held an 6-5 record. The Rockwall Yellowjacket Football Team was determined to secure another bi-district championship and dominated quarter after quarter. Here’s the score breakdown:
- 1st Quarter: Rockwall 22 – Wylie 0

On Saturday (11/18/23), the Rockwall Yellowjacket Football Team will face off against the Waxahachie Indians at 1pm at Allen Eagle Stadium. Waxahachie placed 3rd in their district bracket with a 5-3 record and beat out Midway last Friday. We anticipate this to be a great game since Rockwall fell to Waxahachie in the area round of playoffs in 2022 by just a single touchdown. The Yellowjackets are on a mission to redeem themselves while Waxahachie will attempt to secure another area championship title. If the Yellowjackets are successful, they will move on to regionals where they will face either Klein Cain or Westfield.

We don’t have a detailed score breakdown for this game, but the final score reveals that both teams fought with everything they had. In the end, the Hawks were victorious and will be advancing to regionals!
