Stephenville Secures 7th State Title with 10-0 Win Over Kilgore

Senior linebacker Hudson Butchee earned defensive MVP honors with a key interception as Stephenville shut out Kilgore 10-0 to claim their seventh state championship. Willis Jackson added two interceptions, including a game-sealing pick in the fourth quarter.

Trot Jordan connected with Adan Jergins for the game's only touchdown, providing enough offense behind Stephenville's suffocating defense. The victory marked the program's first state title game appearance since 2021 and reinforced Coach Sterling Doty's defensive philosophy.
