Beforehand in the night, that trip sounded ineluctable, as the Panthers collected a 21-0 lead and dominated both sides of the ball. Also, suddenly, it did not be. Gilbert Mesquite-a two- time defending 5A champion- put the game within reach with a thing in the final drive of the first half.
Although the familiar names will face in the 5A, 6A and Open position Arizona High School Football Championship games, it'll not be in the 4A.
The Championship Weekend will begin at 4 pm on Friday at Sun Tan Poston Butt and Casa Grand. No academy has ever produced a state crown game under the Arizona Interscholastic Association format, although the CIA Grande won a title in 1958 before overseeing the state playoffs.

In the alternate half, the Wildcats pushed a quick punt from Casa Grand 21-14 before driving 60 yards in seven games. That is when Barrow felt the game was slipping.
