    Thank you @ManvelFB and Highland Park for delivering one of the Greatest Texas High School Football games ever played. This is one of those games people will talk about 30 years from now. Unbelievable talent on both sides of the field tonight. @txhsfb @ProfessorDiggs @Gosset41

    Gotta give @LETTNATION a ton of credit. They gave Sachse everything they could handle and then some. What a GREAT high school football game!
