Summary:
            The Cinderella team of the 1988 playoffs could not match their previous heroics in the championship game. The Rogers Pirates won two games in the final seconds and another in the second half to advance to the tile game.
            The Elba Tigers, led by running backs Reggie Horstead and Anthony Brooks, moved the football on the ground to grind out a 14-0 win for the 3A state championship. The two teams struggle to get going early before Elba moved the ball to the Pirates two yard line on a 15 play drive in the second quarter.
            The Pirates defense held on a goal line stand but was forced to quick-kick and the Tigers took over at the Pirates 21-yard line. Horstead scored on a two yard run shortly before the half ended. Brooks scored on a 2-yard run with 8:09 remaining in the game to seal the victory for the Tigers.
