The Clark County School District's 2026 high school football season reaches its conclusion Friday night as 30 independent programs compete in the Superintendent's Cup finals. The in-season tournament was created this year to give public schools their own playoff format to crown champions across three divisions.
All three championship games feature familiar opponents. Centennial and Green Valley meet in the Division I final seeking revenge against their rivals, while Basic and Sunrise Mountain also face familiar foes in the Division II and Division III title games respectively. Sunrise Mountain and Valley will rematch their September 10 contest won by the Miners.
Arbor View senior wide receiver Damani Warren has returned to full health and helped lead the Aggies to the Division I final. At Basic, senior Louden Cahill guides the Wolves to the Division II championship game with his father and grandfather coaching alongside him on the sideline.
Review-Journal reporters Alex Wright and Jeff Wollard have offered predictions for the finals, and the newspaper has released its final Southern Nevada rankings of the fall season with Arbor View and Centennial both moving up. Arthur Gonzales of Del Sol was recently voted Nevada Preps Boys Athlete of the Week for performances during the week of October 12-17.
