"We very much appreciate the awesome attendance and support from the community last Friday at Highlander," HPISD Athletic Director Johnny Ringo said. "The huge Highland Park crowd definitely inspired our Scots to play a great game. We need the same great HP crowd we have had all season this Friday in Allen to support the Scots in their next round.
Remember, when you play one of us, you play all of us!"
