The AHSTW Vikings (12-0) will face the Hudson Pirates (12-0) for the Class A Football Championship on Thursday at the UNI-Dome. We’ll have coverage of the title tilt on KJAN with pregame at 12:30pm and kickoff at 1:30pm from Cedar Falls. It’s the only championship game that will feature two undefeated teams.

Hudson will be playing in their second straight title game after falling to West Sioux 35-14 in last year’s championship. A lot of experience returns from that Pirate team from last season and AHSTW Head Coach Davis Pattee said that makes them a very tough opponent.

The Pirates are led on offense by running back Christian Seres. He has rushed for 1,914 yards this season with 30 touchdowns. He had 123 yards and two scores in the Pirates’ semifinal win over West Hancock. Coach Pattee said the Hudson offense is geared toward getting Seres touches.

The Hudson Defense has been solid throughout the season as well, allowing their opponents just 13.8 points per game on average. The Pirates start five down defensive lineman and Coach Pattee said that makes them tough to deal with at the line of scrimmage.

AHSTW will counter with an offense that was firing on all cylinders in the semifinal win over Edgewood-Colesburg. Quarterback Blake Osbahr was a perfect 11 of 11 with 2 touchdown throws to Drake Partridge in that game. Gabe Pauley continued his consistent play with three touchdown runs in the semifinal win. The Vikings defense has allowed an average of just 11.7 points per game to opponents and the defensive line provided outstanding pressure last round. Coach Pattee said it was great to get the experience of the dome last week and his team is really enjoying the opportunity to play again.
