On Saturday, November 10th, the Warhawks beat Verona 24-7 and are now heading to the State championship game.

The game didn’t start out great for Arrowhead when Verona scored on a one-yard touchdown run to take an early 7-0 lead. Jake Ferris responded by running for a 59-yard touchdown getting Arrowhead back in the game. A botched snap led to a missed extra point. It was 7-6 at the end of the first quarter.

The offense looked good for Arrowhead to start the second quarter. Ferris took it to the house once again for from one-yard out. Arrowhead went for a two point conversion to try and take a one touchdown lead. A Dan Kieffer pass was completed to Jake Hackbart to put Arrowhead in the lead 14-7. Ferris finished his 148-yard day on the ground by scoring his third touchdown run from nine-yards out. A great interception by Connor Lenz set up one of the touchdowns for Arrowhead. Arrowhead ended the half with an 18-yard field goal by Budzien with one second before halftime. Arrowhead led 24-7 at halftime.

That’s how the score would end as both teams were kept out of the end zone in the second half. Arrowhead never let Verona get inside their 25-yard line.

Arrowhead’s great season continues. They will play Homestead for a rematch at Camp Randall Stadium in Madison on Friday, November 16th.
