Thought this Mart defense was good.

WAS

[navydawg31]

Welp that just about does it. 

[myrecordwashorrible]

Mart has the ability to score 3 times. However, even if they do it doesn't appear they can stop Albany.

After 3 Albany 41 Mart 21

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

Gonna be the biggest party in Shackelford County history this weekend if Albany can finish this off. 

[NHSBulldogFan]

Mart just shot themselves in the foot again

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

You gotta hold ya water there son. That penalty seals it. 

[JackofAll]

Barring a epic turn of events Albany has this one in the bag.

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

I haven't seen Mart get abused like this in awhile. 

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

Don't mind losing this one in pickems, been hearing about Coach Faith for years when I lived in WF and the Big Country. Glad he finally got a ship. 

[myrecordwashorrible]

7:28 drive.  Impressive even if it ends with the interception. 

[NHSBulldogFan]

And after 35 years coach Faith finally wins a state championship Albany 41 Mart 21 Final 

[navydawg31]

That’s why you play the game… I thought Mart was a lock to win this game…. Great game Albany way to come out and punch Mart in the mouth Albany wanted it more

And an unofficial stat: Albany was physically dominant. (of course my opinion 🤷🏾‍♂️)

Yeah that coin flip debacle was weird. That'll be a "what if" moment, but I don't think it would've mattered in hindsight.

If the game would have been 1 score at the end of the game I would say yes for sure. But losing by as much as they did not at all. 

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

Tyler chapter will be handling all 3 of today's games. 😎

[oldschool2]

Anyone surprised by the Albany/Mart outcome.. has obviously never spent any amount of time in Albany, Texas.

FW Chapter is one the better chapters in the state minus the crew that did last night's game.

Just curious you might know. When’s the last time a Beaumont chapter officiated a state championship game/ if ever?

To my knowledge never or before my time. But I can ask.

Now the local TASO Basketball chapter has done several state tournament games over the years.
