| Game MVP: |
| Records: McKenzie (14-0); Courtland (10-3) |
|
| Coaches: Sam Dour, McKenzie and Louis White, Courtland |
| Game: Played Friday December 13, 1991 at Tiger Stadium, McKenzie |
| |
| Summary: Courtland's bid for an
unprecedented fourth straight Class 1A state football crown was
denied by a stingy McKenzie defense Friday night. Courtland led
7-6 at the half but McKenzie ahead for good on Chris Merrit's 43
yard touchdown pass to Robert Shufford with 8:02 left in the
third quarter. Courtland's last two drives after a 23 yard field
goal by Jared Dour ended with interceptions and McKenzie had
their first ever state championship in their third appearance in
the title game. They also made trips to the championship game in
1980 and 1981 only to lose to Akron and Hazlewood. |
