MADISON, Wis. -- History did not repeat itself for the Reedsburg High School football team. Friday, the Beavers left Camp Randall with a state championship trophy after losing in last year's state championship game. In Div. 3, Reedsburg defeated West De Pere 34-27.

"It's a dream come true," said quarterback Chad Mazur. "After last year's game I was dreaming about getting another chance. Can we get there again? And I knew we had the right guys and a lot of seniors coming so we had the senior leadership."

The Beavers dominated on the ground. They rushed for 319 yards as a team. Mazur led the way with 184 yards rushing and two touchdowns. Running back Shane Rockweiler also scored two rushing touchdowns along with 114 yards.

"No one thought we could do it this year," said Rockweiler. "They thought last year was our only shot and this year we came out and pulled it away."

Reedsburg ends their season with an 11-3 record, a share of the conference title and most important,the school's first ever state title.

"Just to get a chance at redemption was such a great feeling," said Coach Brian Pottinger. "And just to get here again was great but now, winning it was more of a fullfillment you did it, you set out to do what you accomplished we just have great kids and great community support."
