Stone Bridge played host to Mountain View on Friday afternoon in the Region 5D final with a trip to the Class 5 State Semifinals on the line. Both teams entered the contest with an 11-1 record in a duel that was a rematch of last seasons' 5D regional championship game. Although the contest appeared to be evenly matched on paper, the Bulldogs made it clear who the better team was on this afternoon, as they blasted the Commonwealth District champion Wildcats 42-0.

The Bulldogs received the opening kickoff and wasted little time getting on the scoreboard. On their second play from scrimmage, Charlotte commit Zeke Wimbush launched a pass to fellow class of 2023 teammate Colton Hinton for a 46 yard gain. Two plays later, the 6-foot-3, 225 pound Wimbush rumbled into the endzone to give Stone Bridge a 7-0 lead less than two minutes into the contest.
