1982 State Championship game was in Ray Stadium in Meridian. One of my buds and myself went out to watch it. West Point vs Gulfport.

Gulfport jumped out 14-0 early and appeared to be poised for a blowout. But WP settled in and came back for a 21-14 win. After that they settled in on playing the games in Clinton and later Jackson. I think the game drew about 7K (stadium was about half full). 
The week prior Gulfport played Meridian at USM in Hattiesburg. Meridian kicked an apparent FG to win 10-9 at the end but there was some fishy refereeing that called the FG no good. 
 

Good info! Thx for clearing that up. There’s a “MS football history” type website that I use for lots of data. And it obvs has the score flipped for that championship game. Appreciate the info! And it explains why the announcers kept saying it was Gpt’s 1st state title

The old Mississippi high school football website went MIA during Covid.  It had some great info on there.

Well interesting that there were a few pundits on this site back in August/September that said Tupelo was going to be unbeatable in 7A.

Looks like GPT busted that up tonight. 
Heck of a good win for GPT and first for a Coast team in quite a long time. 

Yep. I’m not even mad at it. Long time coming
