Now we get into the first of the major awards to be handed out in the next week or so.
Special thanks to poster from Gilmer, Cuero, and Hutto for helping direct me gather this information.
The finalists for 3ADL Game of the Year are...
Canton 61 vs Gilmer 58
In a game involving two completely different football traditions, the Canton Eagles shocked the defending state champion Gilmer Buckeyes 61-58 at TMF Rose Stadium in Tyler. Canton quarterback G.J. Kinne threw a touchdown pass to Houston Tuminello in the final minute to give the Eagles their game-winning points. The two teams, who combined for the third-highest scoring playoff game in Texas history (119), also combined for just under 1,200 yards in total offense. Both teams also combined to score seven touchdowns in the third-quarter. Canton rallied from down 14, 15, and 16-points throughout the game. Kinne threw for 432 yards and five touchdowns, and Tuminello finished with 202-yards receiving.
Cuero 21 vs Hutto 23
Down 21-20 in the closing seconds Saturday, the Hutto Hippos placed their season on the foot of senior kicker Jose Diaz and watched as his 24-yard field goal sailed through the uprights to give Hutto a 23-21 victory over the Cuero Gobblers. Down twice in the second half, the Hippos rallied both times to regain the lead and eventually come away with the win.
The Gobblers had 158 yards rushing and 183 passing for 339 yards of total offense.Olguin led Cuero in rushing yards with 84 on 18 carries, while Noack had 59 on nine carries and Latrael Cooper had 15 yards on three carries.Noack was 11-27 passing for 183 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions.
The Hippos' entire 278 yards of offense came on the ground, led by Kerley with 130 yards on 16 carries. Wampler had 98 yards on 21 carries and Jerrick Gauthier had 45 yards on 11 carries.
Tatum 38 vs Hutto 34
Hutto High School's Cinderella ride through the 3A football playoffs came to an end at Texas Stadium Saturday, where they were outscored 38-34 in a tough battle by the Tatum Eagles in the state title game.
A game that belonged to the Hippos but for a 30-second stretch late in the first half, a few bad breaks became the downfall of a Hutto squad that put up quite a fight against a team that, by some accounts, has as many as five NCAA Division I recruits.
With two teams that had given up less than 16 points per game in the playoffs this post season, a game that could have easily been a defensive struggle turned out to be a back-and-forth offensive shootout with the teams combining to gain more than 800 yards of total offense.
The Hippos picked up 372 yards of total offense in the game, 336 rushing and 36 through the air. Gauthier added 86 yards on 12 carries, Kerley had 15 yards on 10 carries and Ryan Dominguez had 11 yards on one carry.
The Eagles picked up 440 yards of total offense, led by Creer with 158 rushing yards. Pollard was 5-8 passing for 94 yards and two touchdowns.
For Hutto, it was the end of spectacular playoff run that saw the Hippos knock off the No. 6, No. 3 and No. 1 teams in the state.
Other nominees were: Wylie vs Gainesville, Wylie vs Canyon, Bridgeport vs Monahans, and Sweetwater vs Iowa Park
