Congrats to @aztriathlon for capturing their 3rd straight national title! Kelly Wetteland also won her 2nd straight individual crown. Another incredible performance by Coach Wes Johnson’s program 🐻⬇️ 🏆🏆🏆

Last year he outplayed the three highest-paid QBs who went in the portal. Arizona’s Noah Fifita is the ultimate outlier in this era of multi-stop transfers: an undersized QB who bucked the trends and stayed loyal to a school and a community when most guys are bailing to chase bigger money and what they think will be a better situation: nytimes.com/athletic/7731376…

Arizona head coach Brent Brennan bought 1,000 tickets for local nonprofits and charities and youth football organizations to attend the Iowa State game.
After the game, Brennan walked into Dirtbag's and bought around 300 shots (a $2,000 tab) for Arizona fans and then walked out.
Amazing stuff. Man of the people.
Axel Burgos Jr. puts Sahuarita on the board against Pueblo on the game-opening drive. Warriors block extra point.
A 1 yard touchdown run by Axel Burgos early in 2Q. Sahuarita leads 20-7. @sahuarita_fb @greenvalleynews

First , I would like to thank God without him nothing would be possible and my family and Coaches for believing in me and supporting me throughout this journey. I am grateful to God for blessing me with the opportunity to continue my academic and athletic career at Morningside University. #GOMUSTANGES @_coachwomack

One of the best 2-way 4A players in the state. Elite QB and safety (he can also kick, and return). GRIT
GO STANGS

Tucson High coach Zach Neveleff’s players and coaches rallied around him in what has been a very emotional time for him since his mom passed away recently. Part of this week he was in Las Vegas to bring home his mom’s ashes after spreading some in Sedona. Tonight, on his birthday, the Badgers beat Buena dramatically 24-23 in overtime. Afterward, he held back tears when he thanked his players in a postgame huddle for their support for when he was away “to help my mom to her home.”

Walden Grove earns its third straight Copper Cup Trophy over crosstown rival Sahuarita with the convincing 33-6 victory. Walden Grove dominated in all areas. The Jace McGee-to-Jordan Dobson connection stole the show. Keep an eye on this Walden Grove team.

Walden Grove head coach Corey Noble says several returners have taken ownership of mistakes made down the stretch of a 52-46 loss to Phoenix Northwest Christian in the first round of the 4A state playoffs last season in which the Red Wolves surrendered a late 22-point lead.

Sahuarita head coach Jake Allen led the Mustangs to their first region title since 2013 in his first season leading the team. In year 3 of his tenure, after battling through injuries and a tough schedule last season, Allen believes the team is positioned to take the next step.

Football has shaped my life in so many ways. Forever grateful for the opportunities and places I get to see because of an imperfect sport played by imperfect people.
Excited to get after it again this season as the Arizona football beat writer for Tucson.com — and be a Southwest Airlines-flying (Group 8 forever), Uber-riding, Double Tree-living son of a gun, or whatever Ric Flair said. WOO! 😂🏈
