Jaziel Hart North Cross

We have our first state champion: Jaziel Hart‘s four-touchdown outburst powered North Cross School to its third VISAA Division II state title in four years.

Hart’s four TDs were far from the only weekend standout performance. Nyqir Helton hauled in seven passes for 103 yards and two scores; Jaden Jefferson piled up 108 rushing yards and three touchdowns on just seven carries; Trashawn Ruffin dominated with a three-sack performance; and CJ Sadler found the end zone four times, including a pick-six.
