GRR: Jesuit Dallas
New Orleans Jesuit put down quite the marker over the weekend, beating Dallas Jesuit in Texas.
Dallas was blooding some new talent but had experience and would have been expecting to put in a closer effort in this game, of not a win. The Rangers got tries from Jodan Mason and Neil Lancaster but New Orleans won big 47-10.

Three major state championships, two official and one unofficial, we concluded this weekend.
