Melissa and South Oak Cliff face off for a state championship spot.
South Oak Cliff seeks its fifth consecutive state title game appearance.
This semifinal is a rematch of recent playoff games between the two teams.

The Friday night lights shine brightly on the historic Cotton Bowl in Dallas as Melissa and South Oak Cliff battle for a coveted spot in the UIL 5A Division II state championship. Melissa, boasting an 11-2 record, secured their semifinal berth with a narrow 20-19 victory over Argyle last week. Their determination is evident after missing the postseason last year.

South Oak Cliff, with an impressive 13-1 season record, is on a quest for their fifth consecutive appearance in the state championship game. The Golden Bears have a recent history of success, winning back-to-back titles in 2021-2022, though they fell short in the championship game in the past two seasons.

This matchup carries recent playoff significance, as South Oak Cliff defeated Melissa in both the 2022 area round and the 2022 regional final. The victor will proceed to face the winner of the Richmond Randle and Boerne semifinal, ultimately competing for the state title at AT&T Stadium in Arlington.
