Open Division final quarterbacks Devon Dampier of Saguaro and Demond Williams Jr., of Basha are like mirror images on the field.

There is a way-back picture that quarterback guru Mike Giovando keeps of Spencer Rattler with two little guys coming up to his shoulder.

But he'll have to outduel Williams, the Chandler Basha junior who has put the Bears' offense on his back in every big win this year. That fourth-quarter comeback win over Hamilton. The 50-yard bomb in the final minute that led to the winning score to beat Chandler in the regular season. That run to the pylon for the only touchdown in a semifinal win last week over Chandler.

"There are going to be times when you don't call the right play and something breaks down, and they can turn it into an explosive play. They're special. They're competitors. I can't speak for Demond. But I can speak for Devon. When the ball is in his hands, we've got a chance. He's going to make it happen. He's not just a playmaker. But he's also a competitor. He gives you everything he's got.

"We were saying, 'We're going to have a good chance of seeing each other in the championship game for the first time in our high school career,'"Williams said.Williams is a year younger than Dampier, who was the same age when he led Saguaro to the Open final title last year. Williams, 5-foot-11, 165 pounds, is listed as four-star recruit by 247Sports, the No. 18-ranked dual threat QB in the nation in the 2024 high school class. His offers so far include Arizona State, Arizona, California, Ole Miss and UCLA.

What makes these two quarterbacks special is the way they can both bail out the offense when things appear to be going sideways with their tremendous athleticism and headiness. Williams showed that in the 26-23 comeback win over Hamilton on Oct. 20, when he rallied his team from a 23-9 deficit in the final 10 minutes with his arm.
