• No. 1 Dillon 21, Columbia Falls 7: In a rematch of last year’s dramatic Class A state championship game, the Beavers (2-0) got the same result as they didn’t allow the Wildcats (1-2) to find the endzone until the fourth quarter. Hank Hagenbarth had the only score of the first half from a 3-yard rush in the first frame, though he found paydirt again early in the fourth from two yards out. Jrney Mataafa then had a 20-yard scamper and score for Dillon to make it 21-0 before CFalls’ Banyan Johnston threw a 10-yard dot to Easton Brooks to get the Wildcats on the board late.

• St. Regis-Mullan (ID) 30, Arlee 28: A scoreless first quarter eventually led to a barn-burner, as the Tigers (2-1) came back from a four-point deficit to start the fourth to win it.

Arlee (1-2) had a 57-yard rushing touchdown from Eli O’Neill and a 4-yard score from Bridger Smith in the second quarter.

• Fairview 47, Culbertson 18: Tyler Loan had a monster night for the top-ranked Warriors (3-0), scoring six touchdowns as Fairview held off a stiff challenge from the Cowboys (2-1), who were only down 27-18 at half.

Braxton Crowder took a kickoff 79 yards to the house during that surge while Zanto and Tinklenberg each had two scores before half, with the latter throwing for one of them to Wyatt Mortensen. Mortensen caught another later from Treyton Tinsen while the Titans got late scores from Hunter Wichman and Mason Thom in the fourth.
