Congratulations to the Morris Warriors
In the most anticipated Class 4A matchup of the year the undefeated Morris Warriors walked out of it as clear winners.
Montini came in as b2b state champions looking for a three-peat, led by 5-star Miami commit Israel Abrams. Morris, sitting at a perfect record, had other plans. The Warriors controlled the game and pulled away for a 41-7 victory.
Junior quarterback Marion Persich (LaSalle-Peru transfer, Miami of Ohio offer) put on a Herculean effort. He accounted for over 300 all purpose yards and kept Morris moving all night. The win wasn’t just about one guy, though.
Sophomore Mayson Munson returned a punt for a score, and late in the game Caden Medler picked off a pass and took it the distance to seal it for the Warriors.
Abrams was injured in the third quarter and taken off the field. Montini wideout Damacio Ortegon still finished with over 100 receiving yards (Saginaw Valley State commit), but the Broncos never got going after the early going.
What Now:
Coach Alan Thorson has taken Morris to two state runner-up finishes before. This group looks like the one that could finally get over the hump. The Warriors are now averaging 47.5 PPG while allowing just 9.3 outscoring opponents by 38.3 points a night.
Next up: Morris hosts Sterling on Saturday (time TBD).
