Mavs look to cinch third vs. Comanche
Mavs look to cinch third vs. Comanche

‘Make no mistake about it, this week’s showdown with longtime rival Comanche means a lot to the Eastland Mavericks, even though they have already clinched a postseason spot. A win over the Indians would enable the Mavericks to climb into the thirdplace position in the District 5-3A standings. That third-place finish could enable Eastland to avoid seventh-ranked Holliday in the bi-district round of the postseason.
