DeSoto High School Eagles Football will host its highly anticipated Spring Game on Thursday, May 15, 2025, kicking off at 5:00 p.m. at Eagle Stadium, located at 700 Eagle Drive in DeSoto, Texas.

This annual event gives fans a first look at the Eagles as they prepare for another exciting football season under the leadership of Head Football Coach and DeSoto ISD Athletic Director Claude Mathis.

Coach Mathis, a highly respected figure in Texas high school football, is entering another season at the helm of the Eagles program. A former standout athlete himself and a veteran coach with over two decades of experience, Mathis has led DeSoto to consistent playoff appearances and two state titles during his tenure.

“This game gives us a great opportunity to see how far we’ve come this offseason and what our young men are capable of heading into the fall,” said Coach Mathis. “We’ve got a strong core returning, and the energy around this program continues to grow every year. The future is bright for DeSoto Football.”

Returning standout athletes for the 2025 season include several key playmakers who made major contributions in 2024 drawing attention from Division I scouts. These student-athletes, along with a talented incoming class, set the stage for what promises to be a competitive year.
