MADISON - Senior Michael Walker has rushed for 255 yards and set a WIAA Division 4 state finals record with five touchdowns to help Walworth Big Foot storm past Kewaunee 42-13 to win its first state title.

Walker had touchdown runs of 17, 1, 48 and 32 yards Thursday night and hauled in a 29-yard scoring pass from senior quarterback Steven Dowden at Camp Randall Stadium to become just the second person to score five TDs in a WIAA state final.

The Chiefs (14-0) were able to celebrate a year after losing to Wautoma-Faith Christian 20-0 in the 2008 final. But the loss was the fourth in as many championship appearances for the Indians (13-1).
