The postseason is here for DeSoto Parish football, and the community is gearing up for some Friday night excitement. According to announcements from the DeSoto Parish School Board, the first round of the Louisiana High School Athletic Association (LHSAA) playoffs kicks off this week with hometown matchups. Mansfield Wolverines and Logansport Tigers will both host playoff games at home, while the North DeSoto Griffins enjoy a bye and will take the field in a later round.

Fans are encouraged to pack the stands and bring the energy as DeSoto Parish shows its spirit under the lights. The community is rallying behind the teams with slogans like #DeSotoStrong, #GriffinPride, and #WinningTogether in support of the athletes’ efforts.

With district championships already secured for all three football programs in the parish this season, expectations are high as the teams aim to translate regular-season dominance into playoff success.
