The Battle of the Axe was a barn burner on Friday afternoon, and not only will Marcus continue to have bragging rights, but it clinched a district title in the process.
Marcus (8-0, 5-0) jumped out to a 21-7 first quarter lead, which included a 4-yard touchdown pass from Garrett Nussmeier to Connor Vaughn and 23-yard touchdown pass to Dallas Dudley.
Nussmeier hit Tyler Schott on a 21-yard pass, and J. Michael Sturdivant for a 4-yard touchdown pass in the second quarter and Marcus led 35-28 at the break.
Lewisville actually tied the game at 35 and took a 38-35 lead early in the third quarter, but then Marcus began to pull away.
The Marauders drove 64-yards and scored on a 1-yard run from Caden Novarro to make it 42-38 Marcus, and Walker Wells scored on an 11-yard run to make it 49-38 Marcus.
The Marcus defense came up big late in the fourth quarter, as Zach Ohlemeier returned an interception 31 yards for a touchdown.
Marcus will host Plano West at 7 p.m. on Dec. 4 in its season finale.
Flower Mound 63, Plano 22

In the second quarter, Flower Mound (4-5, 2-4) drove 54 yards and Nick Evers connected with Isaac Carpenter to make it 14-8 Flower Mound.
Following a Wildcats punt, Flower Mound extended the lead to 21-8 on an Evers pass to Cade Edlein for 47 yards and after completing an 11-yard pass to Walker Mulkey, Flower Mound led 28-15 at the half.
The Jags opening drive of the third quarter went 82 yards and culminated in a 2-yard quarterback draw for a touchdown for Evers, and following a Plano punt, Evers broke a 40-yard run to make it 42-15 Flower Mound.
Plano scored its third touchdown on the ensuing drive, but Flower Mound came right back and scored on a 37-yard pass to Carpenter from Evers.
The Jaguars made it 56-22 on a 1-yard run from Evers, and scored its final points of the game on a 63-yard interception return from John Dulski.
