SAN ANTONIO — Fort Bend Crawford saw its breakthrough campaign come to an end with a 62-42 loss to Dallas Kimball in the UIL Class 4A Division I state title game at the Alamodome on Friday evening.
Crawford, playing just its second varsity season, was aiming to become the first Fort Bend ISD team to win state since Travis in 2013, but the defending champion Knights refused to be dethroned.
