   Sports Extra | HS Football Week 7: WOS vs. Hamshire-Fannett + 3 Huge District Showdowns

   It's a huge Week 7 for Southeast Texas high school football! Mike Friedman and Cam Sanderson break down their latest Top 6 rankings, recap Week 6 and preview three major district matchups on the KFDM Sports Extra podcast. West Orange-Stark vs. Hamshire-Fannett headlines the week as the undefeated, 5-0 Longhorns host the Mustangs to open district play. WOS has already faced powerhouse opponents including Carthage and Bay City, while Hamshire-Fannett enters with one of its strongest teams in years. Could this matchup help decide the district championship, or will Silsbee have something to say about it? Orangefield vs. East Chambers is another potential district championship showdown. East Chambers is undefeated and coming off an impressive district-opening victory over Buna. Cam likes the Buccaneers at home but acknowledges Orangefield has the talent to win. Newton vs. Hardin features the Eagles putting their remarkable 85-game district winning streak on the line. Newton now owns the longest active district winning streak in Texas, according to Mike and Cam. Hardin's clock-controlling offense could provide an unusual challenge. The guys also discuss: Port Arthur Memorial's 21-7 win over West Brook and whether the Titans' offense needs improvement despite their 6-0 record. Beaumont United's three-game winning streak and the Timberwolves' improving offense. Nederland's three-game winning streak and the Bulldogs' upcoming game against Galena Park. PNG vs. Texas City and the Indians' outlook in district play. Vidor's impressive win over Bridge City and what it means for the district race. West Brook vs. Baytown Sterling as the Bruins search for a district victory. Who wins the biggest Week 7 matchups? Which teams are headed toward district championships? And who deserves the No. 1 spot in Southeast Texas? Sports Extra is presented by All Service Heating, Air and Plumbing, proudly supporting Southeast Texas athletes, fans and communities.
