Tony Blalock – Playoff Hamilton? Hamilton won this game with their defense. Every time Joaquin looked they were going to break a play, a Hamilton defender would catch the play from behind. The entire defense deserves the MVP.

Dave Burnworth – Hamilton was nasty on defense with senior Bret Bauman and Freshman Easton Marwitz leading the way. Both had double digit tackles. The offense behind a mean nasty line rushed the ball easily with Halston Haile leading with 93 yards and two scores.

Antony Blalock – Hamilton wins their first ever state title with the help of Halston Hallie and a defense that’s able to control Joaquin’s red hot Slot-T.
