The Nitro Wildcats concluded their regular season with a 23-6 victory over Greenbrier East, securing their seventh consecutive win and a 9-1 record. The game was played through a driving rain and included an hour-long lightning delay, forcing Nitro to rely on its "great offensive line" and running game instead of its passing attack. The Wildcats jumped to an early 14-0 lead with first-quarter touchdowns from Malachi Thompson and Chris Radcliffe. Greenbrier East's only score came on a 65-yard touchdown pass in the third quarter. Nitro's defense dominated, highlighted by senior Cohen Lusher, who set a reported single-season state record with his 18th sack. A fourth-quarter field goal and a touchdown run by Takye Porter sealed the victory, ensuring Nitro will host at least one playoff game.
