The AHSTW Vikings finished as the State Runner-Up in Class A after a 30-7 loss to Hudson in the Championship game on Thursday afternoon. The Vikings finish a stellar season at 12-1 and the Pirates finish 13-0, winning their second straight trip to the title game.

Hudson scored on the opening possession of the game by trotting down the field with a 12-play 75-yard drive that was capped off by an 8 yard touchdown run by Christian Seres. The defenses stole the show for a good chunk of the first half before Hudson scored again with 1:05 left in the first half on a Jacob Murray 10 yard touchdown run. The Pirates led 13-0 at halftime.

The third quarter was owned by the Pirates as they capitalized on an early short field to add a 32-yard Austin Appleton field goal. After an interception on the Vikings next possession, the pirates scored again on a 20-yard touchdown run by Seres to make it 23-0. Jacob Murray would add another touchdown run with 7:57 left to make it 30-0. The Vikings would get in the end zone to avoid a shutout with 3:57 left on a 6 yard touchdown run by quarterback Blake Osbahr. The Vikings converted two fourth downs on that drive to get some points on the board.

Hudson was led by star tailback Christian Seres with 161 yards on 32 carries and two touchdowns. Jacob Murray was 10-16 passing for 116 yards for Hudson. Ethan Fulcher finished with 66 total offensive yards and led the way on defense with 7.5 tackles and 5 tackles for loss.

AHSTW got 46 yards on the ground from Gabe Pauley on 10 carries. Osbahr ran for 22 yards and the score. He also was 14-27 passing for 198 yards on the day. Pauley was the leading Viking tackler with 12 stops on the day.
