Wayne Knight rushed for three touchdowns in the Smyrna Eagles 46-21 win over Dover in the Class 3A semifinals. The Eagles poured on 22 4th-quarter points to blast their way into the championship game where they will take on the winner of the Salesianum-Middletown contest today.

In Class 2A, a second downstate team advances to the championship game as Woodbridge handles Wilmington Friends 24-14. The Blue Raiders held the Quakers scoreless for 3 quarters. They will now play the winner of the Archmere-DMA game.

Laurel is the other downstate team which will await an upstate opponent in the championship game and this is the Class 1A division. The Bulldogs rout Indian River 33-0. They will now play the winner of the St. Elizabeth's- Tatnall game. So three downstate teams advanced yesterday and three upstate teams will advance today to set up the three different state championship games to held next weekend.
