Indiana High School Football Huddle

For the second straight championship game, a team has gotten a three-peat.

Fort Wayne Bishop Luers matched Lafayette Central Catholic's three straight titles with a 41-17 win over Evansville Mater Dei in the Class 2A championship.  The title was the 10th for the Knights, which ties them for the most in state history with Bishop Chatard, which plays Saturday in the 3A title game.

Luers head coach Matt Lindsay has been around for nine of the titles, which ties him with Sheridan's Larry "Bud" Wright for the most for a coach.

The Knights dominated behind quarterback James Knapke, who completed 17-of-25 passes for 190 yards and two touchdowns.  Jaylon Smith rushed for 130 yards and a pair of touchdowns.

Bishop Luers' offense averaged 7.7 yards per play.
