DIVISION 2 NOTES: Last year's runner-up Waukesha West will appear in the State final for the fourth time, and for the third time in Division 2. The Wolverines' won the Division 1 championship in 2010 and the Division 2 crown in 2004 to account for their two State titles. They finished in a third-place tie in the Classic Eight Conference this fall with Division 3 finalist Catholic Memorial behind Muskego and Division 1 finalist Arrowhead. A 28-14 victory over Badger at Level 4 advanced the Wolverines into the final. Homestead is playing in its sixth title game and its first since 2012 when the Highlanders won their fourth championship with a victory in the Division 2 championship game. The four other trips to the finals came in Division 1. The Highlanders made three straight title game appearances from 2006-08, which resulted in titles in 2006 and 2008, and a runner-up finish in 2007. The Highlanders were also crowned State champions in 1999. They are the co-champions of the North Shore Conference this season with Whitefish Bay, and they defeated Chippewa Falls 27-23 at Level 4 to advance to the final.
