Welcome to the Texas HS Football Podcast, your go-to source for all the playoff action, hosted by Taylor Arenz. It’s Week 5 of the playoffs—the semifinals—and we’re down to the final four teams in each division, with two teams set to punch their tickets to AT&T Stadium!

The 1A 6-man state championship teams are now confirmed! In 1A D2, it will be Jayton vs. Oakwood, and in 1A D1, Whiteface will face Gordon. Congratulations to these teams!

The TAPPS State Championship was held last week. Congrats to the 11-man Division 2 winner, Fort Worth All Saints Episcopal, who defeated Houston Second Baptist 21-3 to claim their first-ever TAPPS state championship! Also, Argyle Liberty Christian triumphed over Dallas Parish Episcopal, ending the Panthers' five-time state championship win streak with a convincing 45-24 victory!

Another impressive win this weekend was the Summer Creek Bulldogs’ overwhelming defeat of their district rivals, the Kingwood Mustangs, by a score of 51-7. The Bulldogs aim to return to AT&T Stadium for a second consecutive year and are just a week away from achieving that goal! Taylor’s first guest this week is Bulldogs safety Brandon “B” Jones. Last week's quarterfinal game saw Brandon break the national record for pick-sixes in a season, marking his seventh interception and tying the Texas record as well! Taylor and “B” discuss the record, his team, and his passion for the game!

Next up is athlete Keilan Sweeny, a standout for the Randle Lions, who are headed to the semifinals. Keilan scored all three of their touchdowns in last week's game, including the overtime winner! He shares what it's like to make history for the Lions and the special bond this team has developed this season.

Our final guest is North Shore cornerback Devin Sanchez. An Ohio State commit and one of the top-ranked players in Texas and the nation, Devin possesses incredible speed and has made opposing offenses think twice about throwing near him for years! He discusses his recruitment journey, his experiences at North Shore, and shares great advice for young athletes.

You will truly enjoy this episode filled with passion, insight, and inspiration from these talented athletes!
