Highland Park’s 2-0 victory over Forney on Friday keeps the Scots within striking distance of earning another postseason berth in District 15-5A.

Nick Roostai scored both goals for HP, while Sebastian Tamacas earned the shutout in goal. The Scots (7-10-3, 5-4-3) narrowly trail West Mesquite for fourth place in the district standings with two games remaining.

HP will wrap up the regular season with a must-win home game against Royse City on March 20 and a road trip to district-leading Wylie East on March 23.
