But that\u2019s what happened this week, as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.star-telegram.com\/sports\/dfwvarsity\/article317388228.html\" rel=\"Follow nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Arlington Martin upset the Bearcats<\/a>, ending their 136-game district win streak.<\/p>\n<p>The Martin Warriors leaped three spots to No. 4. With a huge win over Byron Nelson, Keller Central moved into the top three.<\/p>\n<p>Aledo fell to No. 5, and there is a thin gap between the Bearcats and Mansfield Lake Ridge (No. 6). The Eagles had an impressive win over Mansfield but given Martin\u2019s impressive win, they shuffled down a spot.<\/p>\n<p>Keller moved up, showcasing it can come out on top in a dogfight. The Indians took down Boswell in overtime, once again scoring more than 50 points.<\/p>\n<p>Arlington Lamar moved up one spot with a solid win over Arlington. Despite beating Granbury, Arlington Bowie fell down two spots, as its evident the Volunteers have some issues to fix. Granbury, after losing 69-0 to Aledo, came within one score of upsetting Bowie.<\/p>\n<p>Class 5A analysis<\/p>\n<p>The top remains the same, despite Colleyville Heritage\u2019s loss to Lucas Lovejoy. The Panthers are still a top tier 5A area squad, and they have one of the tougher schedules in the area.<\/p>\n<p>The big winner in Class 5A was Chisholm Trail, as the Rangers took down Azle. The team has built a respectable amount of momentum and has room to keep climbing.<\/p>\n<p>With a loss to Arlington Seguin, Joshua fell out of the area rankings. The Seguin Cougars, despite a 1-4 overall record, replaced the Owls.<\/p>\n<p>There was no movement in the Class 4A and private school rankings.<\/p>\n<p>                <a href=\"https:\/\/www.star-telegram.com\/profile\/276018746\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n                        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"author-thumb\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/1790601247_659_Charles_Baggarly (1).jpg\" width=\"400\" height=\"400\" alt=\"Profile Image of Charles Baggarly\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>\n                    <\/a><\/p>\n<p>                <a class=\"author-name\" href=\"https:\/\/www.star-telegram.com\/profile\/276018746\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Charles Baggarly<\/a><\/p>\n<p>                    Fort Worth Star-Telegram<\/p>\n<p>            Charles Baggarly is a high school sports editor and reporter for the Fort Worth Star Telegram.
