Webster County achieved a historic 28-0 season, becoming the first undefeated Class A boys' basketball team in West Virginia since 1987, by defeating Parkersburg Catholic 47-40 in a comeback victory. Overcoming a nine-point halftime deficit, the Highlanders' strong second-half performance, particularly a dominant fourth quarter, secured their first team state championship. Dorian Groggs' 21 points, including 14 in the fourth quarter, and Drew Holcomb's 12 points and nine rebounds, led Webster County's offensive charge. The Highlanders' adjusted defensive strategy, extending their zone and applying pressure, proved crucial in turning the game's momentum. Parkersburg Catholic, led by Ty Sturm's 17 points and Cade Ullman's 10, controlled the first half, but Webster County's increased intensity and clutch free-throw shooting in the final minutes sealed the victory. The Highlanders' passionate crowd support also played a significant role in their comeback. The emotional post-game reflected both the joy of Webster County's historic win and the disappointment of Parkersburg Catholic's narrow loss, highlighting the players' deep connection and the season's significance.
