Longhorn Sports Report

The Cedar Hill High School Football Team will host DeSoto in the annual Battle Of Belt Line Game at 7 p.m. Friday.

The Longhorns (3-4, 2-2) are looking for their first victory in the series since 2020 against the Eagles (5-2, 3-1), two-time defending state champions.

Cedar Hill jumped out to a 7-0 lead last week with a CJ Castleberry touchdown, but host Waxahachie scored 21 unanswered points in the second quarter en route to a 24-13 victory.

Dayshun Reese-Williams had 12 carries for 47 yards and his team-high sixth rushing touchdown of the season. Castleberry's touchdown was his fourth of the year.

The Cedar Hill High School Volleyball Team has a chance to reach the postseason for the second consecutive season if it wins its final three matches.

Luckily for the Lady Longhorns (23-11, 5-6), the last three matches will be played at Milson Gymnasium.

They will host Lancaster (4-22) on Tuesday and DeSoto (21-15) on Friday before closing out the season against Duncanville (21-16).
