CEDAR HILL WEEKLY SPORTS REPORT

The Cedar Hill High School Football Team finished the season in the UIL Class 6A Division II State Quarterfinals, exceeding all expectations.

The Longhorns (8-6) lost to defending state champion, DeSoto (13-0), 59-16. Four of Cedar Hill's six losses came against teams that are now in the state semifinals. Here's a photo gallery from the game.

Senior quarterback Anthony Edwards passed for 222 yards and two touchdowns, including touchdown passes to LeKeldrick Bridges and Kymeion Turner. The Longhorns also blocked an extra point attempt and returned it for two points. Keione Bright caught five passes for a team-high 77 yards.

Several Cedar Hill High School Graduates attended last Friday's playoff game, including former Jackson State football/baseball player Kyland Richey, who works as an engineer now, and former Baylor quarterback Garret McGuire, who finished his first season as wide receivers coach at Nebraska.

Kamdyn Benjamin is living on Tulsa Time these days, but he made the trip south to watch his beloved Longhorns. Benjamin was Tulsa's leading receiver this season.

Kaidon Salter

Liberty quarterback Kaidon Salter had quite a weekend. He led the Flames (13-0) to a 49-35 win over New Mexico State with a career-high 484 yards in the Conference USA Championship Game. Salter was named the game's MVP. Two days later, the Flames were selected for the Fiesta Bowl where they'll face Oregon on New Year's Day in Glendale, Arizona.
