A win is a win and a victory in the final game of the season means you get to call yourself a State Champion.
The Hillsboro Spartans did not put a lot of points on the board as they are accustomed to, but the best defense in the 5A ranks came through one last time and the Spartans held off Jefferson, 20-6, to win the 2009 OSAA Football State Championship at Reser Stadium in Corvallis.
Forecasts for Saturday had called for freezing rain and the possibility of snow. By game time the temperature was above freezing and any ice around Corvallis had turned to slush. With large propane heaters blasting the home and visiting sidelines, Hillsboro took possession to begin the game and quickly assumed control of the scoreboard.

Irish Overcome Lowe With Multiple Weapons
Sheldon held off a furious Jesuit rally to claim a 50-43 showdown win, capping a perfect season, and a stellar career for quarterback Jordan Johnson, now a two time title winner.
"Not many kids have done what he has," proud father and coach Marty Johnson noted. "Jordan has had a lot of weight on his shoulders, and the whole team has had a target on their backs, all season. And then, it looked like we had them, but here they came again! I'm awfully proud of how these guys responded."

Spartans Closeout 4A Days By Sending the Bulldogs Back Onto The Porch
Marist made a statement in their last playoff run before moving up to 5A, and the statement is they are the most dominant team in the history of A-2/AA/AAA/3A/4A football, rolling out to a 55-0 lead before cruising to the 55-16 victory over Baker.
Logan Silver romped for four scores and 139 yards on 16 carries for the Spartans, while Tevin Cheever completed ten of eighteen tosses for 196 yards and four more scores, two to Jeff Bedbury. Meanwhile, Marist's defense held Baker to 76 first half yards. Jesse Brown eventually threw for 195 yards, but most of the production came after the running clock had come into play.
"We went out and played out of our minds," Bedbury exclaimed.
“The offensive line deserves all the credit,” Silver said of his spectacular day. “They opened big holes, and they did it every play. They made it easy for me.”
And Spartan coach Frank Geske added a second championship to his resume, to go with the 2003 title Tigard took. Geske becomes just the eighth coach in Oregon football history to coach two different schools to a title.
"I’m real proud of the way they played," Geske commented. "They played lights out in every phase, and they did so with all the pressure on them to meet lofty expectations."

As the regular season came to a close four weeks ago, three teams that had spent time atop the 5A football rankings. West Albany began the season at number one, only to turn it over to Sherwood after losing to the Bowmen, 22-20, in the first week of play. Sherwood held on to the top spot for six weeks before they were demolished by Hillsboro, 48-14. The Spartans finished the season as the best team, as chosen by both coaches and members of the Associated Press.
All three teams made good on their high rankings throughout the season by reaching the semi-finals last week in the OSAA Football State Championships. The fourth team, playing the role of party crasher, was the Jefferson Democrats.
Jefferson (9-4) entered the playoffs as the tenth ranked team after going undefeated in the less than strenuous 5A side of the PIL. Many, including myself, did not pick Jefferson to reach the semi-finals, let alone upset #3 Sherwood and reach the Championship game for the first time in 50 years.

Marist, Baker Blow Out Opponents to Reach Reser
The top ranked Marist Spartans (13-0) and the seventh ranked Baker Bulldogs (11-1) claimed blowout victories Saturday at Liberty High to earn trips to Saturday morning’s 4A State Championship game at 11:00 AM at Oregon State University’s Reser Stadium in Corvallis.
Marist, the SkyEm champions, mauled the GOL champion Ontario Tigers 42-7, and then Baker, the GOL runner up, blasted the Skyline champion Phoenix Pirates 57-14.
The Tigers never threatened the Spartans, but weren’t put away until mid-way in the second quarter, due to a couple of red-zone defensive stops. Ontario never mounted enough offensive production against Marist’s best in 4A defense to give themselves a chance, though.
The Pirates ship was sunk by the end of the first period, and any hope of keeping the score respectable was wiped out in the first 32 seconds after halftime, during which Baker added two additional touchdowns.

For the first time since the creation of the 5A classification in 2006, the West Albany Bulldogs will be absent from the state championship game. In their place will the Spartans from Hillsboro who defeated West Albany, 28-14, in a physical semi-final game at PGE Park Saturday afternoon.
West Albany (11-2) burst onto the field through a sign that read “Who let the dogs out?” and the Spartans (12-1) promptly took on the role of dog catcher, corralling Anthony LaCoste and the rest of the West Albany offense for all but five minutes.
