(Kilgore, Texas) - We are one step closer to crowning a state football champ in East Texas. This week, there are several teams hoping to move on the next round. It's been a long season of hard work to get to this point.

The regional finals are this weekend with nine East Texas teams ready to play their best football of the year so far. Even if one of these teams isn't your home team, you can still root on these student athletes. Let's take a look at that schedule for this week.
