BSM also ended the 2011 regular season undefeated, but fell to Blake 1-0 in the state championship game.

Blake has once again qualified for state. Seedings and brackets have not yet been released, so it's unclear if—or when—a rematch would happen. The opening round of the state tournament will be Oct. 24-26. The championship game is scheduled for Nov. 1.
