Not a good weekend for 5A

El Paso Class 5A schools getting swept out of the second round isn't uncommon, but none of the local teams came that close to breaking that hex.

Parkland, which seemed El Paso's best chance, fought back from two touchdowns down to tie Wichita Falls at the half, but gave up a touchdown and a surprise onside kick and fell out of contention.
