SPOKANE — Odessa completed its bid for an undefeated season and won the Class 1B state championship 62-36 against Yakama Tribal.

The Tigers finished the season 27-0 after an undefeated football season last fall, the first time that had been accomplished since the 1B and 2B classifications were separated in 2007.

Ryan Moffet, the state’s all-time scoring leader, paced the Tigers with 28 points and scored seven points during a 14-0 spurt in the third quarter that put the game out of reach. The Tigers went from a 27-18 to 41-18 lead halfway through the third quarter.

In other 1B action, Almira/Coulee-Hartline beat Muckleshoot Tribal 69-46 on Friday before losing to Oakesdale 46-41 to place sixth.
