Fredonia cruised to a 40-6 victory over Iroquois in the Divison 2B title game Saturday to claim the sectional crown. Ella Koopman led the way for the Hillbillies, tallying four total touchdowns to go with 127 passing and 88 rushing yards.
The Hillbillies and Panthers met Monday at Highmark Stadium with a berth in the Division 2 state tournament on the line, and it was Pioneer that came out with a 26-12 win. The Panthers (16-0) started strongly to jump out to a 20-0 halftime lead and held onto their advantage in the second half despite a surge from the Hillbillies (15-2).
