No. 4 Westlake goes for another perfect regular season Thursday vs. Buda Johnson
0
AUSTIN (KXAN) — The No. 4 Westlake Chaparrals are one win away from a fourth consecutive perfect regular season, and they'll try to complete the feat Thursday against Buda Johnson at Bob Shelton Stadium in the KBVO Game of the Week.
The Chaps will advance to the Class 6A-Division I playoffs as the district's top seed regardless of Thursday's result against the Jaguars, but a Jags upset and a Bowie loss to Lake Travis would put Johnson in the postseason. Johnson and Bowie are tied for the fourth playoff spot out of the district at 4-3. If both lose and end up 4-4, Bowie would get the nod to the playoffs via a 21-16 win Oct. 12.
Chaps senior running back Jack Kayser needed just three carries to rush for 94 yards in a 62-0 win over Bowie last week. Kayser scored on runs of 58 and 37 yards before calling it a night. Sophomore quarterback Rees Wise threw for 186 yards and a pair of touchdowns against the Bulldogs.
For the Jaguars, junior running back Kael Hatnot rushed for 134 yards on 12 carries with three touchdowns in a 49-7 win over Akins last week.
Joe Taylor and Ricky Doyle will be on the call, and the game will kick off at 7:30 p.m. NFHS Network, our official high school football streaming partner, will stream the game. A subscription fee is associated with NFHS Network.
