After a clean sweep of the district in 2024 and with key players returning on both sides of the ball, the Eagles are poised to defend their title. Their balanced attack, strong defense, and proven leadership give them the edge in a competitive district.

District 19

School2024 Overall Record2024 District Record
Katy Tigers*10-27–1
Katy Cinco Ranch Cougars4–64–4
Katy Jordan Warriors11–27–1
Katy Mayde Creek Rams5–53–5
Katy Morton Ranch Mavericks0–100–8
Katy Paetow Panthers7–46–2
Katy Seven Lakes Spartans4–62–6
Katy Taylor Mustangs2–81–7
Katy Tompkins Falcons6–55–3

District Prediction Winners: The Katy Tigers once again cemented their legacy as one of Texas’ premier high school football programs with an impressive 2024 season, finishing 11-2 overall and a perfect 8-0 in district play to capture the 19-6A championship. The Tigers outscored opponents 525 to 192, showcasing a lethal combination of explosive offense and lockdown defense. A season-opening 41-37 win over Dickinson set the tone early, and they stayed dominant all year—especially on the road, where they went a flawless 5-0.

Looking ahead to 2025, Katy is the clear favorite to repeat as district champs and make another deep playoff push. The Tigers return the most starters in the district, bringing back key pieces on both sides of the ball, including four of five starting offensive linemen. Their experience, depth, and proven track record under pressure make them not only a threat in 19-6A, but a legitimate contender for another state title. This is a program built for consistency, and all signs point to another dominant year in Tigerland.

District 20

School2024 Overall Record2024 District Record
Fulshear Chargers12–16–0
Houston Strake Jesuit Crusaders9–45–1
Richmond Foster Falcons4–74–2
Alief Elsik Rams2–92–4
Alief Hastings Bears3–72–4
Richmond George Ranch Longhorns3–72–4
Alief Taylor Lions1–90–6

District Prediction Winners: The Fulshear Chargers delivered a breakout season in 2024, finishing with a dominant 12-1 overall record and a perfect 6-0 mark in district play to claim the district championship. Behind a high-powered offense that racked up 658 points and a resilient defense, Fulshear proved to be one of the top programs in the state, earning a Top 50 TX ranking (No. 47). The Chargers went undefeated at home (4-0) and on the road (5-0), showcasing their ability to win in any setting and under any circumstance.

As we look toward 2025, Fulshear is not just a contender—they’re the standard. With a strong core of returning talent and momentum from last year’s run, the Chargers are poised to repeat as district champs and make an even deeper playoff push. Their offensive production speaks for itself, and if the defense continues to tighten up, Fulshear could be staring down a state semifinal—or even championship—appearance. Expect fireworks again in 2025 as the Chargers aim to finish what they started.

District 21

School2024 Overall Record2024 District Record
Fort Bend Ridge Point Panthers10–27–0
Fort Bend Hightower Hurricanes9–26–1

Fort Bend Elkins Knights7–54–3
Fort Bend Austin Bulldogs4–63–4
Fort Bend Bush Broncos2–82–5
Fort Bend Dulles Vikings1–91–6
Fort Bend Clements Rangers1–90–7

District Prediction Winners: The Ridge Point Panthers put together another dominant campaign in 2024, finishing with a 10-2 overall record and going a perfect 7-0 in district play to lock up the district championship. The Panthers were explosive on offense, piling up 606 points, while their defense remained stingy, allowing just 240. Whether at home (4-1), on the road (5-0), or at neutral sites, Ridge Point played with poise and consistency, proving themselves as one of the top programs in the state with a No. 49 Texas ranking.

As we turn to 2025, Ridge Point has every reason to feel confident about repeating as district champs. They return a talented and experienced group on both sides of the ball, and their offensive system continues to be one of the most efficient in the region. If the defense keeps up its strong play and the offense remains high-scoring, the Panthers will be a serious threat not just in district—but deep into the postseason. This is a team built to win now, and all signs point to another big year in Missouri City.

Pearland Oilers9–37–1
South Houston Trojans3–73–5

District Prediction Winners: The Shadow Creek Sharks continued their tradition of excellence in 2024, finishing the season with a 9-2 overall record and a flawless 8-0 in district play, securing the district championship. The Sharks were efficient on both sides of the ball, scoring 459 points while allowing only 180, proving they could dominate with both explosive offense and a suffocating defense. They were especially strong at home, going 5-1, and held their ground away with a solid 4-1 road record.

Heading into 2025, Shadow Creek is poised to defend its district title once again. With a strong foundation of returning talent and a program culture built on discipline, speed, and execution, the Sharks are set to be one of the top teams in the Houston area. Their defense remains one of the most underrated in the state, and with their offense clicking at the right time, Shadow Creek is a threat to make serious noise in the playoffs this fall. Expect the Sharks to circle back stronger, faster, and even more dangerous in 2025.

District 23

School2024 Overall Record2024 District Record
Galena Park North Shore Mustangs *14-18–0
Humble Atascocita Eagles*12-26–2
Humble Summer Creek Bulldogs*12-32–2
Humble Kingwood Mustangs*9–54–4
Sheldon C.E. King Panthers*5–53–4
Humble Wildcats*5–52–5
Channelview Falcons*1–91–6
Baytown Goose Creek Memorial Patriots0–100–7

District Prediction Winners: The North Shore Mustangs once again proved why they’re one of the premier powerhouses in the nation with a dominant 2024 season, finishing 14-1 overall and 7-0 in district play. Ranked No. 5 in Texas and No. 28 nationally, North Shore racked up 633 points while only allowing 215, showcasing their signature blend of explosive offense and punishing defense. Undefeated at home (6-0) and perfect on the road (4-0), the Mustangs were consistent, battle-tested, and elite in all three phases of the game.

Heading into 2025, North Shore isn’t just expected to win their district—they’re in serious contention for another state title. With a deep and disciplined roster, championship pedigree, and one of the most talented coaching staffs in the state, the Mustangs are built to reload, not rebuild. If they return key starters, especially at quarterback and in the trenches, it’s hard to imagine anyone in the district dethroning them. Expect another deep playoff push and continued dominance from Houston’s gold standard in high school football.

District 24

School2024 Overall Record2024 District Record
Clear Springs Chargers8–36–1
Deer Park Deer8–36–1
Dickinson Gators7–46–1
Clear Falls Knights6–54–3
Brazoswood Buccaneers2–82–5
Clear Creek Wildcats3–72–5
Clear Lake Falcons3–72–5
Clear Brook Wolverines1–90–7

District Prediction Winners: The Dickinson Gators wrapped up a solid 2024 campaign with a 7-4 overall record and a strong 6-1 finish in district play, earning second place behind a competitive district leader. The Gators scored 528 points across the season—one of the highest totals in their district—while giving up 301, showcasing their explosive offensive capabilities. At home, Dickinson was nearly unbeatable with a 5-1 record, but found some challenges on the road, going 2-2.

Looking ahead to 2025, Dickinson is positioned as a serious contender to challenge for the district title. With a high-scoring offense already in place and key returning players expected to take the next step, the Gators will be a team to watch. If they can tighten things up defensively and perform better away from home, they could make a deeper playoff run and even flip the standings next fall. Don’t count the Gators out—this squad has bite.

As we gear up for the 2025 Texas high school football season, 6A Region 3 is loaded with talent, proven programs, and rising contenders. From perennial powerhouses like North Shore and Katy to explosive challengers like Fulshear and Ridge Point, this district promises fireworks every Friday night. With returning starters, stacked rosters, and high expectations across the board, the battle for district supremacy will be fierce. Buckle up—this region is set to deliver one of the most competitive and entertaining seasons in all of Texas high school football.
