  Roman 10, SJ Prep 9: Though the teams' regular season meeting had produced a 36-7 defeat, Roman received an early confidence boost when 320-pound Jewhan Edwards rumbled straight up the middle to block a punt and Andrew Regan recovered the ball for a TD. Roman's Chris Fioravanti (39 yards) and Prep's Tim Edger (45 yards, two short of the city's postseason record) blasted field goals. With 28.5 left, Jim McGoldrick uncorked a stirring, 77-yard punt return for a TD, but Edger's PAT hit the left upright and Regan recovered the onsides kick. Roman's Balial Lewis Sloan-El ran 29 times for 118 yards, raising his season's total to 2,141. This was the fourth time in eight seasons that Prep, unbeaten in division play, suffered a title-game upset.

  Carroll 30, Neumann-Goretti 22: The Patriots rolled to a 30-8 halftime lead, then held on. N-G, which received three rushing TDs from Hakeem "Skiz" Johnson (26-100), advanced to Carroll's 32 on its final possession before three straight incompletions terminated hopes of a miracle. Kevin Eckel scored twice for Carroll on a 1-yard run and an 85-yard kickoff return. QB Luke Wischnowski (21-95) did likewise; he also passed 3-for-6 for 83 yards.

  W. Catholic 28, Wood 7: As they'd been all season, alternating junior tailbacks Rob Holloman (17-107) and Raymond Maples (16-81, two TDs) were a two-headed rushing monster as the Burrs won a second consecutive title for the first time since claiming four straight starting in 1943. Those performances allowed each to surpass 1,000 yards for the season -- Holloman (1,048), Maples (1,040). QB Curtis Drake, like those two a junior, ran for two scores while raising his season's rushing/passing yardage total to 1,922. Maples, Haleem "P-Nut" Hayward, Rodney Blango and Jordan Culbreath had interceptions. Wood suffered an early blow when RB-LB Bob DeLucas, the coaches' division MVP, departed with an ankle injury. Sean Cunningham ran for the Vikings' score.
