Hidalgo finished third in the Class 3A voting, finishing with 54 points --- 40 points behind Argyle. The Pirates won the boys state soccer title along with make the Final Four in girls basketball.

Class 2A Brock High School won its first-ever Lone Star Cup on the heels of state championship wins in girls basketball and softball. A lengthy run in the baseball playoffs gave Brock enough points to overtake last year's winner Salado.
