No player for Lake Travis (5- 0, 4 - 0) carries more frustration with him than receiver Garrett Wilson, who crone up short of a first down on his team's final attempt at a rally. "Ithink about it a lot," Wilson said. "I was really mad to be on one of the teams that lost to Westlake. Westartedslowand finished the same way. It just wasn'tagoodweekforus." Though the memory of last year's defeat still stings Lake Travis' top player, Wilson doesn't dwell onthe game. But it does bring him a little extra motivation. "I'm looking forward to it," hesaid. "lknowmyteammates. I know we can go out there and beat them. What happened last year is just motivation for me. I'm excited to play, to get back out there and get another chance at them before I go." If the Cavaliers are going to avenge the 2017 defeat, they'll have to handle Westlake's aggressive defense and chang­ ing looks, something they didn't do well last year. "They mix things up quite a bit," Wilson said. "They are one of the more sophisticated teams that we'll play with their defense." Westlake coachTodd Dodge could not be reached for comment. After catching passes along­ side Wilson in last year's game, Hudson Cardgets his first taste of the rivalry from the quarter­ back's spot - and his first look at Westlake's pass rush. With 20 touchdown passes and no interceptions, Card bas handled whatever opposing defenses have thrown at !him so far, and he doesn't plan to change his process. "I just have to trust what we've been taught and let it go," Card said. "Our coaching stiff puts us in position every week to go out there and play well. We want to have a good week of practice and go out and play our game." Lake Travis coach Hank Carter said Westlake played its game last year.
