2024 Week 9: Elgin vs Bastrop

In week 9, Elgin took on Bastrop on Friday night!

Bastrop, lead by sophomore quarterback Weston Nielsen, rolls into this match-up still undefeated in district play at 5-0 after a blowout win over a solid Elgin team. 

Standing between the Bears and a district title is likely their two toughest games of the year: this week at Pflugerville, then next week at home against state-ranked Liberty Hill. That could be a battle of district unbeatens if Bastrop can win this week.
