3AA FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIP – Weddington blitzes Southeast Guilford to win second title

CHAPEL HILL, NC – The Weddington Warriors struck first, and struck
often, as they ripped off a 27-14 victory over Southeast Guilford to claim
the school’s second state football championship. James Shipley starred
offensively and defensively for the Warriors, with an interception and
return that set up a fourth quarter score to go with a 50 yard touchdown
pass on a reverse pass and an 8 yard touchdown catch from his receiver
spot. With ten receptions for 113 yards, as well as contributions in other
areas, he was named the game’s Most Valuable Player.

Southeast Guilford’s opening drive stalled and James Shipley returned
the punt to the Falcon 37 yard line, setting Weddington up in excellent
field position for their first possession. After a procedure penalty backed
the Warriors up five yards, Whitner Litton lofted a pass to Max Brimigion
down the left sideline for a 42 yard score to put the Warriors up 7-0 with
9:25 to go in the first quarter.

The Warriors second possession was a bit more of a sustained effort, as
they went 64 yards in seven plays capped off by a bit of trickiness. Wide
Receiver James Shipley took the reverse handoff and set up to throw
long to a wide open Will Shipley who took it the rest of the way 50 yards
down the left sideline for a score to go up 14-0 with 2:29 to go in the first
quarter.

In the second quarter, James Shipley found the endzone on the receiving
end of an eight yard pass from Litton with 8:52 to play in the half. The PAT
was blocked and the Warriors led 20-0. SE Guilford intercepted a screen
pass midway through the second, which swung some momentum back the
Falcons way. They mounted their best drive, chewing up over five minutes
of clock with Ryan Douglas helping power the rushing attack. However,
with time winding down in the half the drive stalled and a 44 yard field
goal attempt was no good.

Southeast Guilford recovered a Weddington fumble in the early part of the
third quarter, setting up the Falcons with a short field on the Warrior 36
yard line. Southeast scored four plays later as Douglas rushed across the
goal line from 12 yards out to make it 20-7 with 6:42 to go in the third.

The Falcons were intercepted to start the fourth quarter, and James Shipley
returned it to the Falcon five yard line. Two plays later Weddington
cashed in the turnover on a Will Shipley one yard run to go up 27-7 with
11:01 to play. After the two teams traded possessions, Southeast Guilford
took a shot deep and Douglas hooked up with Tyler Hoff who took it 83
yards to the endzone to trim the Warrior lead to 27-14 with 6:19 to play.

Douglas was named Southeast Guilford’s Most Outstanding Offensive
Player with 126 yards through the air and a touchdown to go with his 86
yards and a score on the ground. Quantez Mansfield was the defensive
Most Outstanding Player for the Falcons with six tackles including one
sack and an interception from his defensive line spot.

Weddington’s Most Outstanding Offensive Player was Whitner Litton as
the quarterback threw for 172 yards and two touchdowns while completing
67% of his passing attempts. The defensive Most Outstanding Player
for the Warriors was Eamon Murphy who led the team in tackles with 9
and intercepted a pass, returning it deep into Falcon territory to set up the
final Weddington score.

The NCHSAA is committed to promoting good sportsmanship and with
the assistance of North Carolina Farm Bureau are pleased to present
Sportsmanship Awards to one member of each Championship team that
have exhibited good sportsmanship throughout the 2018 season.
Southeast Guilford’s winner was senior offensive lineman, Jacob Rapp.
Weddington’s selection was senior wide receiver and defensive back, Aiden
Brosterhous.
