Jefferson dominates Harrisburg in SD high school football semifinals

The Sioux Falls Jefferson football team came into its Class 11AAA semifinal game against Harrisburg as the state’s top team. The Tigers came in as the No. 4 seed looking to pull a major upset. Safe to say, that didn’t happen. Jefferson opened the game on a 37-0 run, went into halftime up 51-12 and closed out Harrisburg’s season with a 58-20 win on Friday. "Our defense, phenomenal job getting stops,” Jefferson head coach Eric Struck said. “We knew the way they’d played the last few weeks. They’re want to lean on their run game, so for us to get up and essentially take that away from them as early as we did was huge.” The Cavaliers applied immediate pressure behind its sterling defense. That unit has been one of the top, if not the top, in South Dakota all year, and it flexed its muscles on Friday night. Harrisburg was limited to 151 passing and 66 rushing yards for 217 total. The Tigers went three-and-out on their first three possessions, and that was all the Cavaliers needed to get going. “Offensively and defensively, it was a fundamentally-sound game all around,” Jefferson linebacker Beau Koerner said. “Harrisburg just quit.
