The Twin Valley League had once again a very tight race on the 8-Man side of the league. Multiple teams made deep postseason runs, including the Frankfort Wildcats, Axtell Eagles, and, of course, the 8M-II champions, the Hanover Wildcats. Hanover beat Victoria 28-20 in the state championship game to secure their first state title since 2020 and their 8th overall state title in program history. Hanover ended both the chance for the five-peat and Axtell’s 58-game winning streak to finish the season a perfect 13-0.
