The finalists run the gamut from perennial powers like Tarboro, which is in the final for the sixth consecutive season (this time in 2A instead of 1A after realignment), to 8A West top seed Hough, which will play for a title for the first time. WATCH: North Carolina HS football championship games LIVE on NFHS NetworkBeyond the teams that have earned their way to the finals, some of the top individual talent in the state will play one more game as well — including three of 247 Sports' top five Class of 2026 players. No. 2 overall national recruit and Tennessee signee Faizon Brandon will try to lead Grimsley to a second consecutive title, but the Whirlies will have their hands full in the 7A final against Miami recruit Keshawn Stancil and Clayton. Oregon signee Kendre Harrison, the MaxPreps National Athlete of the Year across all sports as a sophomore, will try to help the Rams take their second title in three years and add to the record 19 championships they already have on the wall.
