Allen cruised to a resounding 48-7 victory over Plano East on Friday night in a dominant display of power and precision. The Eagles set the tone from the opening kickoff, controlling both sides of the ball with impressive execution. Offensively, Allen was nearly unstoppable, stringing together methodical drives and excelling on both the ground and through the air. The offensive line provided strong protection, allowing their quarterback to make big plays downfield.
Defensively, Allen proved just as formidable, shutting down Plano East’s attempts to find any rhythm. Consistent pressure on the quarterback forced several turnovers, while the secondary blanketed receivers and capitalized on interception opportunities. The defense’s effort stifled the Panthers’ offense throughout the game.
Special teams also played a crucial role, with Allen flipping the field on precise punts and solid kick returns. Their all-around performance left no doubt about their dominance, wearing down Plano East and ensuring the district title. The victory marked Allen’s first district championship since 2020, a testament to their outstanding form.
Next week, Allen begins the playoffs with a rematch against the Lewisville Farmers at Allen Eagle Stadium. Having defeated Lewisville in last year’s postseason, the Eagles face a 7-3 Farmers team riding momentum after a shutout victory over Little Elm. With familiarity between the teams, expect a hard-fought battle as Allen looks to continue their strong playoff push.
Final Score: Allen Eagles 48, Plano East Panthers 7
