Guyer ready to take on
new district slate by Steve Gamel
T
he Guyer football team is used to being placed in a tough district lineup every year. That won’t change next season, though there is the added incentive of exacting revenge on a few opponents of the past.

Head coach John Walsh and company learned they would join a revamped District 5-6A lineup that includes the likes of Denton Braswell, Allen, Prosper, McKinney, McKinney Boyd, and Little Elm. The news was released during the University Interscholastic League’s biennial reclassification and realignment day on February 3. The new district lineup is for the 2020-22 school years and is for all sports at Guyer – not just football. There are several positives with this new lineup. For starters, it’s a chance to play fellow Denton ISD school, Braswell, for the first time. Braswell makes the jump from 5A after making the playoffs last year for the first time in program history. Guyer will also get its hands on Allen. The Wildcats have never beaten the Eagles, but already planned to play them in nondistrict had the two not ended up in the same district.
