This championship encounter holds special significance for Zachary as they seek redemption against Ruston, the team that dashed their hopes in the 2022 semifinals. Eager to erase the memory of that defeat, the Broncos are prepared to face off against a resilient Ruston squad in a bid to hoist the state crown.
