Rochester 47 vs. Union 14 Final

   

It was another great night for high school football. Rochester scored first, but it was a highly competitive game in the first half. Until the last play of the game Rochester scored to go up by two scores. Union never recovered nor did they score in the second half. There were a lot of outstanding players for both teams but the players of the game were Michael Flowers for Union and Caleb Collin for Rochester. The final was 47-14 Rochester.
