| 1 | WILLIAMSTOWN 33, ST. MARYS 32 (3OT) | |
 |
||
| ALL-TIME CLASSIC, WILLIAMSTOWN CLAIMS CLASS A TITLE IN TRIPLE-OVERTIME – The headline, alone, is enough to put this game in the top spot. Williamstown erased a 20-0 deficit, blocked a potential game-winning St. Marys extra point and stuffed the Blue Devils’ two-point try at the end of the third-overtime. Yellow Jackets QB Dakota Watson anchored the comeback for the Yellowjackets, finishing with 116 rushing yards and three touchdowns. He also completed 4 of 12 passes for 73 yards and a touchdown in the win. | ||
| CLASS AA BOYS BASKETBALL TITLE | ||
| 2 | POCA 57, FAIRMONT SENIOR 53 |
|
 |
||
| PERFECT ENDING: POCA BECOMES FIRST UNBEATEN BOYS CHAMP IN 28 YEARS – There were storylines galore in the final piece to Poca’s 27-0 season. The Dots trailed by 16 points in the second quarter, but chipped away to set up a flurry of late-game dramatics. Poca brothers Noah and Luke Frampton, meanwhile, were also playing in memory of their late-father who guaranteed they would win a title together. | ||
| CLASS AAA BOYS BASKETBALL TITLE | ||
| 3 | HUNTINGTON 53, PARKERSBURG SOUTH 50 | |
 |
||
| AAA REPEAT: HUNTINGTON EDGES PARKERSBURG SOUTH FOR 2ND STRAIGHT TITLE – Tavian Dunn-Martin scored 23 points on 7-of-18 shooting as the Highlanders won their second straight title. Down three with just 1.5 seconds to go, Parkersburg South’s Garrett Gilkeson was forced into a contested 3 that was off the mark. | ||
| CLASS AAA BASEBALL TITLE | ||
| 4 | JEFFERSON 2, NITRO 1 | |
 |
||
| JEFFERSON CAPTURES 11TH TITLE, EDGES NITRO – You couldn’t ask for a much better AAA championship than powers Jefferson vs. Nitro. It was the ultimate pitching battle between the Cougars’ Brad Davis and Nitro senior Kipp Brewer — and both delivered. Ultimately, Jefferson won its 11th title, taking advantage of two Nitro errors in the first inning. | ||
| CLASS AA GIRLS BASKETBALL TITLE | ||
| 5 | SISSONVILLE 50, FAIRMONT SENIOR 47 | |
 |

| GIANT KILLERS: FOURTH-SEEDED SISSONVILLE WINS FIRST GIRLS TITLE SINCE 2003 – Sissonville had a dramatic run to its girls basketball championship, following an upset of top seed Wyoming East with a title win over two-seed Fairmont Senior. The undersized, scrappy Indians won the rebounding battle 38-35. Fairmont Senior erased a 10-point deficit with six minutes left and almost completed the comeback, closing to within a point and under a minute to go. A final heave down-court in the final second fell short as time expired for the Polar Bears. | ||

 |
||
| NEW REIGN IN CLASS A: MAGNOLIA CAPTURES CLASS A BASKETBALL TITLE – The Region 1 rivals became very familiar with one another, meeting in the championship game for what was the fourth time on the year.

| 7 | ST. JOE 40, WHEELING CENTRAL 37 | |

||
| 7TH HEAVEN: ST. JOE ADDS ANOTHER TITLE TO CLASS A DYNASTY – It wasn’t as dominant this time around, but St. Joseph Central added a seventh straight title with a 40-37 win over Wheeling Central. Freshman Alexis Hall led St. Joe with 17 points, while Tyesha Taylor added 12 points — including a crucial five straight points with under three minutes to go to erase a one point deficit.

| CLASS A BASEBALL TITLE | ||
| 8 | WAHAMA 7, MAN 0 | |
 |
||
| WAHAMA RIDES HICKS AND STICKS TO LONG-AWAITED CLASS A CROWN: The 7-0 final score doesn’t indicate how close this game actually was through five innings. It was a pitching duel between Wahama’s Mason Hicks and Man’s Jake Adkins as Wahama scored the only run up to that point. The White Falcons finally broke the game open in the sixth, putting together six consecutive two-out hits and scoring six runs. Ricky Kearns led Wahama from the plate, going three for four with three RBIs. It was Wahama’s third baseball championship overall. | ||

 |
||
| CHAMPS AGAIN: MORGANTOWN DOMINATES PARKERSBURG SOUTH FOR AAA TITLE – It was supposed to be a title game rematch from the year before that delivered intrigue and plenty of late game drama.

Olivia Seggie finished with 15 points, while Sydney Holloway added 13 for the Mohigans as they won a second straight title | ||
