Jackson Country Central (JCC) High School star Roman Voss capped off his legendary prep career on Friday with a dominant performance in the Huskies' second straight AA State Championship victory.

Voss has been verbally committed to play college football for his hometown Gophers as a tight end since June 23, but he's a QB at the high school level. Listed at 6-foot-4, 225 pounds, he leaned on his physicality on Friday with 38 carries for a career-high 252 yards and three rushing touchdowns.
