Winning in a thrilling game over Hillcrest the Knights did what they have done all season which was lean on the legs of [player_tooltip player_id='540122' first='Peter' last='Minnaert'] who rushed for 138 yards and three touchdowns in the state championship game. Sophomore quarterback led the way in the passing game but the Knights were also helped out by [player_tooltip player_id='1135712' first='Cooper' last='Cammann'] who was a do it all player for them all season. [player_tooltip player_id='415463' first='Rakeem' last='Johnson'] and [player_tooltip player_id='336949' first='Jackson' last='Brody'] led the way up front for the Knights with their line play and did an excellent job opening up big holes for the Knights running backs. It helps to have a huge compliment of players especially guys like [player_tooltip player_id='734542' first='Sam' last='Knell'], [player_tooltip player_id='740808' first='William' last='Sachse'], [player_tooltip player_id='917529' first='Trey' last='Jorgensen'] and Alex Sullivan to help out all season in big ways. Coach Culig had his team rolling during the season with big win after big win and was able to cap off his first season at the helm with a state championship. The Knights were dominant all season but showed why they were considered by many as the top 4A all year and we would expect their running back to be in the conversation for player of the year in the 4A.
