MT. ZION, Ill. (WAND) - For the first time ever, Mt. Zion Football is headed to the Final Four.
As the Braves prepare for their semifinal bout, they will once again be the lower seed.
Mt. Zion as a 12th seed has knocked off a higher seed in two of its three playoff wins. Next up for the Braves is 10th seeded U-High.
"It's kind of fun being the under seed," said senior wide receiver Brayden Trimble. "No one thinks you're going to come out on top. And then BOOM, we come out on top again."
The Braves travel to Hancock Stadium at 7 p.m. on Saturday. If they win, they will be right back at ISU on Black Friday for the State Title Game.
