FARGO (NewsDakota)- The question for nine-man football in the last three years has always been what would it take to beat New Rockford-Sheyenne/Maddock?
The Details
Turns out, the answer was the greatest offensive performance in DakotaBowl history in a record-setting individual game.
Mason Warcken accounted for a DakotaBowl record 678 yards and seven touchdowns as the LaMoure-Litchville/Marion Loboes rallied from 22 down in the third quarter to defeat the Rockets 52-46 in overtime and end their 37-game winning streak in the 9-Man State Championship Game on Friday at the FargoDome for their first championship since 2021.
New Rockford-Sheyenne/Maddock (12-1) struck early, with Layton Jacobson plunging in from a yard out for an immediate 8-0 lead. That would be doubled when Aidan Rodriguez scooped up a fumbled punt and scored from 40 yards for a touchdown to extend to a 16-0 lead. But then Warcken got going, finding Joey Potts on fourth down for a 15-yard score to cut the lead to 16-6 after one.
