    Unbelievable! What a moment for Plano East. The first UIL team state championship in school history belongs to @PlanoEastHoops after completing a perfect 40-0 season.

    FINAL: McKinney Boyd 2, Allen 1 WOAH!! What a grab by Boyd LF Jack Brinkley to seal the win and force Game 3. Allen had the bases loaded too. What clutch defense by the Broncos.

    OH MY GOODNESS!!! Allen scores with TWO SECONDS left in regulation. Camera didn't get the best look, but @AHS_B_Soccer's Dylan McBride scores shortly after a throw-in Osi Iyamah. Allen and Irving are improbably tied 1-1. WOW.

    Hope the video comes through OK, but here's the wild play that @alleneagles ended the half on vs. Trinity just now. Grant Tisdale is apparently a euphemism for Houdini. #SLMGridiron

    FINAL: Plano 60, Duncanville 48 For the 2nd time in program history, Plano is headed to the state tournament after scoring a huge upset over the state's #1 team. What a performance by @PlanoGirlsBBall.

    FINAL: Duncanville 77, Allen 74 Duncanville denies a tying 3 attempt by Allen, and the Panthers punch their ticket to the 6A D1 championship game. Fourth-quarter rally by @AllenEagleBball comes up short, as Allen ends its season at 34-2 overall.

    According to UIL, in light of the Duncanville boys basketball team being stripped of last season's state championship, McKinney will be designated as the 2022 Class 6A state champions. The game will go down as a 2-0 win for @MHSLionsHoops. What a wild development.

    And the District 6-6A girls track and field champions are..... (drumroll) @PlanoRunning! Lady Wildcats compete a wild comeback and capture their 1st district title since the 90s! Plano won the last 5 events to total 127pts and edge Denton Guyer (124pts) and Allen (117).
