High school football Week 4 is done and dusted in the Pensacola area.
Seven teams started district play, with three teams getting their first district win. Pine Forest went back-and-forth with Williamson, MaxPreps No. 1 4A team in Alabama, while Pace and Pensacola Catholic bounced back with wins after tough losses in Week 3.
Booker T. Washington and Northview moved to 4-0, while 3-0 Jay was off this week.
Escambia was supposed to host Choctaw in its District 1-4A opener on Friday, but that game was pushed back to Oct. 1 due to unplayable field conditions.
Below is who won and who lost in Week 4 and what to expect in Week 5.

Pensacola State College women's soccer team played its first home game – truly at home – on Sept. 3.
The PSC team hosted Northeast Community College following the ribbon cutting of its new PSC Soccer Complex on a 6.7-acre site at the corner of Underwood and Tippin avenues.
The more than $5.7 million lighted complex includes a natural turf NCAA regulation-sized soccer field, bleacher seating for 280 fans, a concession stand and bathrooms.
Phase 2 of the project, the construction of dressing rooms and a press box, will begin in the fall and cost $2.1 million.
PSC President Ed Meadows described Thursday as "a good day for the college and student-athletes," but added the complex will also be an **** et to Pensacola and Escambia County.

High school sports are in full swing across Escambia and Santa Rosa County.
Football wrapped up Week 2 last week, with Pensacola Catholic delivering a statement win over Pace and four more area teams moving to 2-0.
Golf returned this week as well, with defending District 1-3A champion Tate starting their season with a win over Jay and Escambia, while defending District 1-1A champion Pensacola Catholic narrowly won a quad with Pace, Gulf Breeze and Milton to kick off its season.
More than half the area's cross country teams competed at the Pine Forest Eagle Invitational, with Pensacola Christian leading the area with a third place finish.
