An incredible weekend of Indiana high school football wrapped over the weekend with six state championship games from Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. Brownsburg (6A), Decatur Central (5A), New Palestine (4A), Heritage Hills (3A), Adams Central (2A) and Providence (1A) each walked away with state championship victories.

The lower ranked team prevailed in three of the six state finals, highlighted by then-No. 2 Brownsburg's 22-17 over then-No. 1 Westfield.
