"I've been dreaming of this moment since I was 6-years-old," Stump said after the game. "To be able to do this with the kids I've been playing football with since I was a 6-year-old, 12 years ago… I can't even put into words how much this means to me."
The 2-A championship is Friday at 1 p.m., with Avonworth taking on Southern Columbia.
On Saturday, Central Valley matches up with Wyoming Area in the 3-A title game.
