“We successfully completed our middle school football season using our championship structure once again,” said Ronald Patton, CFISD associate athletic director. “Throughout the regular season there were several close games within zone play that would determine final seeding. In the end, we were able to award four new district champions in their respective class. All four championship games were action packed and drew nice crowds as they were played at the district stadiums. Congratulations to not only the winners, but all schools involved in the final games of the season. We look forward to next season.”
