Previously on Cy Woods Football...
It was a happy Homecoming for the Cypress Woods Wildcats as they topped the Cypress Springs Panthers by a final score of 63-36 to clinch a playoff berth. As it stands, the Cats will be the #2 seed in the Division I bracket.
The Wildcats will wrap up the regular season with one final tune-up before a long layoff awaits. In case you have not heard, the game with Katy Tompkins that was originally scheduled for December 4 has been canceled.

Now, let's take a look at the rest of Region II.
District 9-6A - Garland/Wylie
So apparently in 9-6A, a one-loss team missing the playoffs is now a thing as a previously winless Wylie team defeated previously undefeated Rowlett 30-27 on Friday, rendering the rest of Rowlett's season meaningless. 9-6A tried to play a zone schedule while trying to get a full district schedule in at the same time, and... it completely backfired on them. Rowlett could potentially win out and it wouldn't matter. Wylie, meanwhile, could lose out and that wouldn't matter either.
In another win-and-you're-in game, Sachse beat South Garland 57-13. So, Sachse and Wylie will be the Division I representatives for 9-6A. The other two play-in games, which would be for places in the Division II bracket, will pit Naaman Forest against North Garland while Garland faces Lakeview Centennial.
Sheesh.
District 10-6A - East DFW/Tyler
Rockwall tops 10-6A with their 4-0 record. Behind them are Rockwall-Heath and a familiar school: Dallas Skyline, who are tied at 2-1. Currently, the Division I teams from 10-6A are Rockwall (#1) and Skyline (#2); the Yellowjackets smacked the Raiders 56-6 last week.
District 11-6A - South DFW/Waco
The four playoff teams in District 11-6A are set. 11-6A utilized zone play this season. Much more competently than District 9-6A, might I add.
Division I: #1 Duncanville, #2 DeSoto
Division II: #1 Cedar Hill, #2 Waxahachie
District 12-6A - CenTex
The two schools currently slated for Division I are Killeen Shoemaker and either Harker Heights or Belton, who are currently tied for fourth at 2-2. Temple and Bryan are the current Division II teams.
The Knights and Tigers will play each other on December 3, during the final week of the regular season. Harker Heights beat Shoemaker 51-50 in overtime last week. Before they meet, Harker Heights will play Killeen and Copperas Cove, while Temple has Ellison and Shoemaker.
District 13-6A - Conroe ISD/Willis
College Park and The Woodlands are the current DI teams. Oak Ridge and Grand Oaks would be in Division II.
District 14-6A - Aldine/Spring
Spring (#1) and Westfield (#2) are the current Division I teams. The last two spots, currently occupied by Dekaney and Eisenhower, will go to Division II.
The Enemy: Cypress Lakes Spartans
2019 Record: 5-5, 4-4 (5th) in District 14-6A

2¢ on Lakes
The Cypress Lakes Spartans were once again on the doorstep of the playoffs in 2019, but once again, they couldn't make the breakthrough as they were left to rue some close losses. You can take your pick as to which loss stung more:
- The 73-70 slugfest against Tomball Memorial in which they just needed one more stop.
- Missing a game-tying field goal against Woods that would have forced overtime, or...
- ...squandering a 31-13 second-half lead against Ranch.
Not even the otherworldly efforts of Sofian Massoud could spur the Spartans onto the playoffs. Now, with Massoud moving on to the University of Houston, the Spartans now face a significant rebuild and at 0-8, they are essentially back at square one. Not only has Massoud departed, Lakes also lost their leading receiver, Khaliq Mateen, and the person who would have been their top returning receiver, Josh McMillan, who moved to Tompkins. They also lost a talented trio in the secondary as Eamon Perry, Kyree Anderson, and Xavier Corbin have all moved on. Simply put, the Spartans were decimated by graduation and a very significant move-out.

I've said this many times, however: even the teams that are perceived as being "not good" in Cy-Fair ISD have a few players who can cause problems. There are no truly bad teams in this district. Amir Turner and KeLan Dove are legit threats in the passing game and they could certainly play at any of the other schools in this district. Zoel Henriquez, Justin Gomez, and Neven Aguilar anchor the Spartans' offensive line.
Last Time These Two Teams Met
The Wildcats fended off a challenge from probably one of the best quarterbacks to come through Cy-Fair ISD in a decade, Sofian Massoud, and hung on for a 31-28 victory as Lakes kicker Axel Espinal missed a 48-yard field goal as time expired. Massoud had four total touchdowns, but Jackson Jones matched him with four of his own as he ran for 96 yards and three scores while throwing for 157 yards and a touchdown.

Colton Morris had 14 tackles, a season-high for any Cy Woods player in that category during the 2019 season.
