There’s a first time for everything. Mason County has its first-ever state football champion after Wahama captured a thrilling 43-42 overtime victory over Madonna Saturday night in the Class A state championship game at Wheeling Island Stadium in Wheeling, W.Va. The White Falcons finished off a program-best 14th victory in style Saturday night, as Wahama — trailing 42-41 in OT — went for two and succesfully converted after quarterback Trenton Gibbs scampered into the end zone untouched. Pictured above are the 2012 Class A state football champions, the Wahama White Falcons. Pictured at the side is 18th-year Wahama head coach Ed Cromley lifting the 2012 Class A championship trophy. Complete details of Wahama’s state title game are available on A6 in the sports section of Tuesday’s Point Pleasant Register. (Alex Hawley/photos)
