Mike Says: The Wildcats did not make the playoffs last year which does not happen very often. This year they move to a different district and look to have a good chance at getting back in. Expect them to go 6-4 or 5-5 in the regular season and battle it out for that 3rd or 4th playoff spot in the district.

Chris Says: Plano is a team that has been overlooked this offseason. Heck most every team in the Dallas area has been overlooked with the news of Allen's monster stadium. While the Wildcats don't sport a $60million stadium, they do have a good tradition and they bring up a lot of players from Junior Varsity that went 8-2 last year. Those youngsters are going to have trial by fire when thrown into the thick of District 10-5A. They will get banged around, but have a good shot to sneak into the playoffs.
