CIF Division 2-AA state championship: Mater Dei Catholic-Chula Vista spoils McClymonds’ bid for a fifth state title
MISSION VIEJO – After 56 minutes of uneven play, McClymonds somehow had a chance to tie the 2-AA state championship with about two minutes to go.
McClymonds got the ball back when Redmani Albert picked off a pass, and the junior then snagged a 20-yard fade in the endzone from Faison with 7:46 left in the game. Now needing a 2-point conversion to tie the game, the Warriors failed to convert again on the two-point try. McClymonds’ Jaivian Thomas tackles Mater Dei Catholic’s Anthony McMillian Jr. during the first quarter of the 2022 CIF State Football Championship Division 2-AA game at Saddleback College in Mission Viejo, Calif., on Friday, Dec. 9, 2022.
A year after beating Birmingham 54-7 in the 3-A championship, McClymonds’ 2022 opponent proved to be far tougher. Mater Dei dominated every facet of the first half except for the scoreboard, which read 13-6 after 24 minutes of play. Mater Dei had 13 first downs, compared to McClymonds’ two, and had the ball for almost 16 minutes compared to Mack’s eight.
“I felt like the man, and I felt like I had brought the momentum to the team,” said Miller, who finished with two interceptions. With the win, Mater Dei Catholic repeats as the 2-AA state champion. McClymonds did not get its fifth state championship since 2016, instead losing their second state title game in Southern California in the last four years — albeit in the highest state division they’ve ever played in.
