Less than 30 minutes away from the TAPPS Division III championship between Shiner St. Paul and Frisco Legacy Christian. St. Paul is the designated home team, and Legacy Christian is the visitors.

Kickoff moved up to 7 p.m. for the TAPPS Division III title game. About 200 fans for each team at Baylor's Floyd Casey Stadium.

Legacy Christian won coin toss and deferred. St. Paul receives the opening kickoff. Cardinals begin first-and-10 at their own 25.

Cardinals driving on the ground. Third-and-7 at the Eagle 17.

by guardeen 12/8/2012 1:08:40 AM
Easy with the comments @Kdot I see them. There are certain UIL rules about broadcasts.

Hello from Allen's Eagle Stadium. Should be a heck of a game here between Lancaster and Mesquite Poteet in a 4A DIvision II Region II final. Lancaster (12-1) is having its best season by any measure under third-year coach Chris Gilbert. Its best playoff run was three rounds in 2000, and the last time the Tigers won 10 games in a season was 1941. Nineteen forty-one! Mesquite Poteet is hoping to reach the state semifinals for the second time in coach Randy Jackson's three seasons. Poteet won one game in the two seasons before Jackson took over. Two good third-year coaches on the field today. Should be fun.

Hollenbach carries it in for the score from 4 yards out. St. Paul in front 7-0 with 5 minutes left in first quarter. Hollenbach carried 9 times for 57 yards on the 75-yard drive.

Why'd txa pick birdville guyer over over skyline allen .... nobody cares about them

by Kdot 12/8/2012 1:12:26 AM
@Kdot -- don't know. You have to ask TXA-21. Perhaps it's too tough to broadcast a game from Mesquite Memorial?
