Highland Park Falls 70-37 in Offensive Shootout on the Road at Argyle
Highland Park fell to Argyle 70-37. Fri · Sep 18, 2026
Highland Park Scots football · 2026 season.
The Highland Park Scots ran into an offensive buzzsaw on Friday night, dropping their final non-district contest to the Argyle Eagles 70-37 at Eagle Stadium. Despite generating fireworks of their own, the Scots were unable to contain an explosive Argyle rushing and passing attack that consistently found the end zone in this high-scoring road tilt.
The Scots' offense, led by quarterback Buck Randall, kept fighting throughout the evening. Early on, Randall executed a crisp option pitch to Caiden Reeves, who darted in for a 7-yard touchdown. Reeves would also add a tough 1-yard scoring plunge, while running back James Flowers continued his red-zone dominance with a powerful 15-yard touchdown run to keep the chains moving.
However, the Eagles' offense proved overwhelming. Argyle capitalized on massive chunk plays, including a back-breaking 96-yard touchdown reception by Julian Caldwell. Caldwell was a constant mismatch, reeling in multiple deep scoring strikes, while the Eagles' backfield, spearheaded by Ryan Nelson's 63-yard breakaway run and Logan Rexroat's 22-yard burst, continually gashed the defense.
Now sitting at 1-3, Highland Park will quickly turn the page to the games that matter most. Head Coach Randy Allen and his squad return to the friendly confines of Highlander Stadium next Friday for their district opener against Naaman Forest. With Homecoming festivities on the docket, the Scots will look to start their district campaign with a clean slate and a pivotal victory.
