Monona Grove came back from a 17-point deficit at halftime against the Greendale Panthers, scoring 21 unanswered points in the second half to take home the Division 3 championship, 21-17. The Silver Eagles employed a balanced attack, gaining 209 yards on the ground while throwing for 217 through the air. Brock Offerdahl's 1-yard touchdown with 53 seconds left finished an impressive comeback for the Monona Grove.
This year has been incredible, couldn't have asked for better coaches or team mates, I'm gonna miss my MG family so much. Brothers for life.
