In the girls final, the defending champion Seahawks and Texans went back and forth in an instant classic.
In a sign of greatness to come, Ortman hit Smith to open the scoring, before Texans Emery Beckett connected with Zahra Hill for the rebound. Austin’s Kaitlyn Reynolds followed up a sensational pass breakup on defense with an offensive TD. Ortman and Smith simply would not be denied. Ortman spotted Smith over the middle with a heave just over the goal line to tie it, leading to the two-point game-winner after the Texans went back up by one.
