Great to be back under the WDIG call letters! Two station ownership changes in less than a year was very taxing. #comics #gilthorp

(15) Butler avenges regular season loss in 11th all-time postseason meeting with (18) Independence
The Bulldogs used a stellar fourth quarter to create separation in an NCHSAA 7A first round victory.
MATTHEWS, N.C. — Ever since Butler opened in 1997, its rivalry with Independence has burned red hot.
It’s seen both schools win multiple state titles and featured one of the first nationally-televised high school football games 20 years ago when ESPNU broadcast their regular season finale from Charlotte’s Memorial Stadium.
So, when Butler coach Donald Littlejohn heard last week when the N.C. High School Athletic Association released postseason pairings that his team would meet Independence on Friday in their 11th all-time playoff game, he welcomed it.
Especially since Independence had just rallied to beat his team 22-20 in their 2026 regular season finale.
“I was thankful,” Littlejohn said. “It’s not too many times in life that you get to play your rival again – and at home.”
The No. 15-seeded Butler answered that challenge by avenging the loss in a 30-14 victory that saw the Bulldogs shut out the No. 18 seed Patriots’ offense in the second half. Butler (5-6) advances to play at two-time defending state champion Grimsley next week in the second round of the 7A playoffs.
“The biggest message was to play like who were are,” Littlejohn said of his practice preparation this week. “Last week, we didn’t play to the best of our abilities.”
