"Our offensive linemen Cordan Williams, Khamoni Jones, Michael Kennedy, Ben Riddle, Demarco Brooks and Jerome Carter played really well," Firestone coach Eric Mitchell said. "The defensive linemen and linebackers played well too. We had some injuries that we had to overcome and we jelled. We were able to get the job done.

"We contained them for the most part. They have a great run game and we knew we would have our hands full. Carlo Johnson gave us a great effort defensively, and so did Cordan Williams, Jaden Zinn, Khamoni Jones, Xavier Lyde and Mark Travis."
