PREP FOOTBALL: Jackson County Central stops Luverne to claim Section 3AA championship

MARSHALL — There have been many great games in the recent rivalry between Luverne and Jackson County Central, but Friday night’s classic in the Section 3AA high school football championship game at Southwest Minnesota State University’s Mattke Field may have been the best yet. JCC’s Darick Vancura rushed the ball 30 times for 263 yards and scored three touchdowns — including a go-ahead 59-yard scoring burst with 3:26 remaining in the fourth quarter — to lead the second-seeded Huskies to a thrilling 35-28 victory over the top-seeded Cardinals.
