WEST ORANGE-STARK (9-4)) over SILSBEE (9-4) 7:30 P.M. Friday in New Caney—This is another meeting of two teams that faced each other during the regular season, in fact they finished first and second in the final District 10-4A-II standings. The Mustangs got to the Class 4A Regional Finals by nipping undefeated Jasper 21-14 while the Tigers cruised past Giddings 38-21. WO-S needed a last-minute field goal to subdue Silsbee during the regular season and both teams have gotten better since then. We’ll find out how much better Friday in New Caney. The winner will play in the state semifinals next week against the winner between Cuero (12-1) and Geronimo Navarro (10-2).
