Allen (Texas) has enjoyed a tremendous season so far, winning all 13 of its games up to this point.
Now, the Eagles can make their season even more memorable with a win against the defending University Interscholastic League 6A Division I champions.
Allen takes on those defending state champs, North Crowley, in the 6A DI Region I championship game, which takes place Friday night in Denton at DATCU Stadium.

Allen comes into Friday’s playoff showdown with a perfect 13-0 record. The Eagles have generally been rolling in their games, with only two teams getting to within seven points; though one of those teams, Lewisville, pushed Allen to the limit in the bi-district round before the Eagles pulled out a 22-15 win.
But the Eagles have rounded into form more in their next two playoff games, beating Lake Highlands 41-7 in the area round and Odessa Permian in last week’s regional semifinals, 56-13.
North Crowley (12-1), which went a perfect 16-0 last season en route to winning state, won three close games to start this season before stumbling at home to Rockwall. But since then, the Panthers have turned things up a notch, reeling off nine straight wins - all by double digits. That included last week’s 46-21 win against Coppell in the regional semis.
The Allen-North Crowley winner takes on the winner of the Region II championship game, Waxahachie against Duncanville, in next week’s 6A DI state semifinals. Waxahachie takes on Duncanville on Saturday in Midlothian.
