De Leon 21, Hico 14 — Kevin Yeager rushed for 110 yards and passed for 181 and three scores to help De Leon snap a three-game losing streak. 

The Bearcats, who were highly touted prior to the season, hadn’t won a game since a 36-23 victory over Tolar on Sept. 7. With a district-opening win, however, they are now in the hunt for the league title many had them picked to win.
