1ST QUARTER

GAME START: We are underway. E.D. White puts the opening kickoff through the back of the end zone and Shaw will start with the ball on the 20-yard line.

Today will be historic, one way or another. E.D. White is looking for its first state championship since 1969, and Archbishop Shaw is looking for its first since 1987.

Shaw was putting together a good drive despite two fumbles by senior quarterback Mason Wilson on the opening possession, but a failed third down conversion led to an Eagles' punt. E.D. White will start on their own 11-yard line.

TOUCHDOWN E.D. WHITE! The Cardinals put together an eight-play, 89-yard drive capped off by a tush push touchdown by quarterback Grant Barbera. E.D. White leads 7-0, 4:13 Q1.

Shaw went for it on 4th and 6 but Mason Wilson was swarmed and sacked by the Cardinals' defense. White takes over on their 45.

White went for it on 4th and 1 and got the yardage needed on a keeper by Barbera.

END OF THE 1ST: E.D. White 7, Archbishop Shaw 0

2ND QUARTER

E.D. White went for a long field goal but it was blocked and returned for a short gain by the Eagles' defense. Trystan Evans was credited with the block.

TOUCHDOWN ARCHBISHOP SHAW! Mason Wilson breaks off a great run and takes it 21 yards to the house for his 10th rushing TD of the season. That was a nine-play, 80-yard drive. This game is tied 7-7, 6:14 Q2.

TOUCHDOWN E.D. WHITE! Carter Douglas punches it in from one yard out to punctuate another strong seven-play, 80-yard drive by the Cardinals. White leads 14-7 with 4:04 left in the half.

Shaw was building some momentum but the drive petered out. The Eagles got off a good punt and E.D. White will take over on their 25-yard line with 2:24 until halftime.

White punted and Shaw will have 49 seconds to try to put some more points on the board before the end of the first half.

TOUCHDOWN ARCHBISHOP SHAW! Busted coverage leads to a wide-open receiver and Wilson hits Michigan signee Jacob Washington. Washington bobbled the catch but managed to hold on for the tying touchdown (bottom right video below) with seven seconds left in the half. This game is tied 14-14.

Wilson finished the first half with 151 yards from scrimmage and two total touchdowns. Washington tallied 95 yards and touchdown on seven catches. E.D. White ran the ball 27 times for 163 yards and two scores.

HALFTIME: E.D. White 14, Archbishop Shaw 14

3RD QUARTER

Shaw needed two kickoffs to get the second half started after being called for a false start on their first try. E.D. White starts with the ball on the 24.

The Cardinals were unable to get anything going leading to a quick punt. Shaw begins on their own 24 after a 64-yard punt by Ty Powell.

There was plenty of action in the third quarter, but neither team was able to break the stalemate.

END OF THE 3RD: E.D. White 14, Archbishop Shaw 14

4TH QUARTER

White begins the fourth quarter with the ball on their 45-yard line.

FIELD GOAL WHITE! The Cardinals regain the lead on a 27-yard field goal by Ty Powell. White leads 17-14 with 9:22 left in the game.

TOUCHDOWN ARCHBISHOP SHAW! Mighican signee Jasper Parker gets some great blocking and takes it 62 yards to the house to give the Eagles the lead. Shaw leads 21-17, 8:59 Q4.

E.D. WHITE FUMBLE! White attempted a pitch but the toss was behind the runner and the Shaw defense recovered inside the red zone.

TOUCHDOWN ARCHBISHOP SHAW! Wilson and Washington connect again on a potential backbreaking play. Shaw leads 28-17 with 7:29 remaining.

TOUCHDOWN E.D. WHITE! White was putting together a good drive but they were stuffed on third and goal. Jonathan Lee broke the plane on a 4th and 3 to keep the Cardinals' hopes alive and Ben Guidry hurdled into the end zone on the 2-point conversion. That drive was 11 plays and 80 yards that took 3:36 off the clock. White trails 28-25 with 3:53 left.

Shaw is marching down the field and E.D. White is forced to burn its first of three timeouts to stop the clock with 2:17 to go.

Jasper Parker picks up another first down and effectively puts an end to this one to cap off a thrilling fourth quarter and all-around great game.

FINAL: Archbishop Shaw 28, E.D. White 25
