What we learned from Friday night's 6A, 5A and 4A football semifinals for Arizona high schools.

By turning Galvan loose the last two weeks, Cactus has a chance to pull one more upset, against No. 3 Gilbert Higley in next Friday's 8 p.m. 5A title game at Sun Devil Stadium.Higley couldn't have scripted it any better, beating No. 2 Scottsdale Desert Mountain 35-33 on a walk-off field goal by Konner Olson. The key play was Jamar Malone II's first-down completion on third-and-eight from his 41 to keep the chains moving, leading to the Olson field goal.
"Crazy how that's happened," ALA GN coach Randy Ricedorff said about two teams playing in 3A a year ago meeting for the 4A gold ball."Snowflake is a really good team. Should be a great championship."
