Panthers, Savages Battle To The End Carey High School junior running back Heith Adamson straight-arms Salmon River sophomore Dustin Rinker and picks up more yardage on the Boise State University Bronco Stadium blue turf Thursday night during the State 1A Division 2 eight-man football championship game. Carey coach Lane Kirkland called it "an epic battle," and it truly was, Salmon River dethroning Carey as Gem State champions 46-42 with a last-second touchdown pass.
