Prince Avenue would go 10-4 last season, including their third state championship. They also have a new head coach in Jon Richt. The Cavs would have a nice season in 2024 as well by going 9-3. The Wolverines would be seeking their 185th win in school history, while the Cavs were seeking win number 234.
Mother Nature was in a good mood to start this one, with weather almost perfect for football. As the night wore on, there would be two delays as heavy downpours, with thunder and lighting, showed up. In the first half, Calloway had a slim three point lead, at 17-14. DJ Mahone started the scoring off with a fine 26-yard run, after Jayden Bailey nailed his point after kick, Calloway led. 7-0 with 11:44 left in the opening half. Prince Avenge would get a 50-yard run from Andrew Beard, followed by the point after kick from Joey Black to lock things up at seven, with 10:12 left on the first half clock.
Bailey added a 41-yard field goal to put the Cavs up, 10-7 with 4:32 left in the half. Junior three-star Virginia Tech-commit quarterback Ben Musser connect with Hudson Hill for the 87 yard score to put the Cavs up, 14-10, with 4:04 left in the half. The final score in the half came on a Christon Kennedy 6-yard run to give Calloway a 17-14 lead.
The two teams came out twice to get things going in the 2nd half as Mother Nature decided to act up. Prince Avenue seemed to shake off the long delay and score the game's final 26 points.
