-- TOUCHDOWN, Duncanville! Running back pass! Brandon Edwards completes a four-yard TD pass to Zachery Turner, the four-star TE's second scoring catch of the game. (D'Ville, 43-0 | 6:00)

-- High School on SI talked to Armstrong, who was a part of the Panthers' 6A Division I state championship run as a backup to current LSU running back Caden Durham last year. We talked to him after his breakout performance against nationally ranked St. Frances Academy of Maryland on Sept. 22. Durham's message? "He just told me to keep my head high and play how you play,” Armstrong said. “Caden set a high standard, so I’m just trying to get there. … I’ve got some shoes to fill, and that’s what I’m looking to do.”

PREGAME READING

The talent on the North Texas power's roster is almost endless. Quarterback Keelon Russell is a 5-star Alabama commit and wideout Dakorien Moore, an Oregon commit, is also a 5-star and the nation's No. 1 rated receiver in 2025. Zachery Turner is an uncommitted four-star tight end, Ayson Theus is a three-star receiver and one of the nation's top sprinters on the track.

Duncanville, the top-ranked team in Texas, has climbed the national rankings steadily throughout the season and moved all the way up to No. 2 this week after top-ranked Mater Dei (Calif.) dismantled No. 2 St. John Bosco (Calif.). The Panthers, an established national powerhouse, are no stranger to the throne.

Last week, Russell threw four first half touchdowns en route to a blowout of Mesquite Horn.

The Panthers are well-represented on High School on SI's North Texas high school football player of the year watch list. Dive into the full list here.

ABOUT MESQUITE (2-6)
