I never knew I was afraid of crowds, but I found out Saturday night at the Louisiana Superdome. People, people everywhere, and none of them I know! It was a record-setting crowd in The Big Easy this weekend for the state championships in football.
All three games were blow-outs. South Plaquemines, with four seventh graders and five eighth graders on the roster whipped West St. John to take the 1-A state title in the first game.
Bastrop, with the skills of Randall Mackey at quarterback, ran up a 38-0 score before Archbishop Shaw could make their fifth first down of the game to win 38-14. The Rams' only weakness is that they could not seem to convert on extra points.
Mackey is still the real deal. He can still run, pass and even rated a 9.5 on his back flip into the endzone on his first touchdown. He also was recognized by the referees for an unsportsman-like penalty of 15 yards on his celebration.
Class 5-A has a new champion, the Destrehan Wildcats. The Cats dethroned defending champion Acadiana by 41-21, breaking open a close game in the final period of play.
