It was edge of your seat exciting in the Division 1 state high school football championship game at Camp Randall Stadium, in Madison.
Arrowhead defeated Bay Port, 18-15.
The final score was decided in the final minute of the game. The Pirates earned a 13-12 lead with 46 seconds left, when running back Brady Moon scored a go-ahead 11-yard touchdown. Bay Port's two-point conversion gave them a three-point edge, but the Warhawks responded with Ryan Heiman's kickoff return for a touchdown that covered 76 yards. It proved to be the game winning play after the Pirates decided to go for the win, instead of a game-tying field goal. Bay Port's final play of the game was an incomplete pass.
It was Arrowhead's 14th title game in program history. Their previous experiences resulted in six State titles, including 1993, 1994, 1996, 2007, 2012 and 2013. Their runner-up finishes came in 2000, 2002, 2003, 2006, 2008, 2014 and 2015.
The Warhawks finished second in the Classic Eight Conference this season behind Muskego, the team Bay Port defeated in the State semifinal.
