Marble Falls (2-7 overall, 0-3 District 4-4A Division I) faces off against Brownwood (4-4, 1-2). There’s a chance the Mustangs could make the playoffs if they beat the Lions by enough points.
Marble Falls head coach Keri Timmerman believes his team has a shot.
“I’ve seen a ton of growth for our kids (this season), but it’s tough for our seniors because they are seeing the very beginning of it but they aren’t seeing the result of it,” he told KBEY 103.9 FM Operations Manager Ben Shields in an on-air interview. “We all want to be successful right now, and so we’re just trying to find a way to find it on Friday. And that’s the goal … to get these kids one more week together.”
