UIL State Saturday Rewind: DeSoto Destroys Summer Creek, Duncanville Dominates North Shore, PNG Wins Thriller over SOC
The DeSoto Eagles, Duncanville Panthers and Port Neches-Groves Indians won 2023 UIL State Football Championships on the final day of the season.
The 2023 Texas High School Football season came to a close Saturday at AT&T Stadium with repeat champions from the same district in Class 6A and an upset in Class 5A-Division II to open the day’s action.
In the opener Saturday morning in front of a crowd of over 33,000 fans, Port Neches-Groves knocked off South Oak Cliff 20-17 to bring home their first state championship since 1975. The Indians were able to avenge their loss to South Oak Cliff from a year ago as Jeff Joseph’s squad used a suffocating defense that held the Golden Bears to just 162 yards of offense and some late heroics from their special teams to pull off the comeback win.
