Williamstown secured the Class AA state championship with a 50-47 victory over Poca, relying on clutch free-throw shooting and effective zone defense. Despite nearly squandering a 21-point halftime lead and failing to score a field goal in the fourth quarter, Williamstown's 14-of-17 free-throw performance proved decisive. Sam Cremeans led the Yellowjackets with 20 points, while Xavier Caruthers contributed 14. Poca's late-game rally, fueled by Isaac McKneely's scoring and improved defense, fell short as they struggled from the free-throw line and couldn't overcome Williamstown's disciplined play. Williamstown's 2-3 zone effectively disrupted Poca's offense, particularly in the first half, contributing to Poca's poor shooting. The Yellowjackets' rebounding advantage and timely free throws sealed the victory, marking their first state championship since 1962. Poca's Ethan Payne and Jackson Toney had strong performances, but McKneely's shooting struggles ultimately hindered their comeback efforts.
