MADISON, Wis. (AP) - Edgar claimed its first state football championship since 2001,
beating Eau Claire Regis 46-7 in the WIAA Division 6 state final
Thursday at Camp Randall Stadium.
Senior quarterback Justin Sinz passed for 179 yards and three
touchdowns, helping the Wildcats finish 14-0.
The Ramblers finished 12-2. They came within moments of being
shut out Thursday, but senior quarterback Hayden Hougen scored on a
1-yard plunge with 5 seconds left.
Sinz threw TD passes on two of Edgar's first three plays of
the second half. One was a 59-yard toss to senior Derek Durkee. The
other was a 42-yard strike to junior Dakota Heidmann.
The Wildcats outscored opponents 651-20 on the season,
including 212-14 in five playoff games. They also recorded shutouts
in 11 of their 14 games.
