Quentin Gibson, a three-star wide receiver from North Crowley High School (Fort Worth, Texas), led his team to the UIL Texas 6A Division 1 state championship on Saturday against Westlake High School (Austin, Texas).

The game featured two of the best teams in Texas as the Panthers came in with an unbeaten record of 15-0 and the Chaparrals had a record of 14-1 ahead of the game.

The game took place at AT&T Stadium in Dallas, Texas and was expected to be a close encounter. However, the Panthers came in hot after their semifinal win against the Duncanville Panthers (Duncanville, TX) and won 50-21.

Gibson was the biggest factor in North Crowley's win as he caught the ball seven times for 181 yards and scored three touchdowns.

On3 Recruits shared Gibson's highlights from the game on X and fans were left amazed by the talented wide receiver's impressive outing.

"Legendary," one fan said.

"The speed of Jimmy Horn with the playmaking of Wester all rolled into one! Wow Boulder gone be lit!" another fan wrote.

"Yea he’s hard," another fan commented.

While he received a lot of praise for his performance, some fans criticized the recruiting website for rating him as a three-star prospect.

"There is no way this kid should be a 3 star," one fan wrote.

"This kid is a 5 Star. There no way you can name 2-3 WR’s better then him," another fan said.

"He’s the best wr down there," another fan commented.

It was a fantastic end to his high school career, and he will now take his talents to Colorado next year.

Quentin Gibson scored 36 touchdowns in his senior year

Quentin Gibson, the three-star wide receiver from Fort Worth, Texas, had a brilliant three-year stretch at North Crowley High School. The 5-foot-8 athlete grabbed 93 catches for 2,009 yards and 36 touchdowns in his final season with the Panthers and led his team to a state championship.

Gibson's 36 touchdowns in one season is the fourth-highest in the state's history. He broke Seattle Seahawks star, Jaxon Smith-Njigba's record of 35, set in the 2019-20 season.

The three-star prospect is the 717th-best overall recruit and is the 117th-best wide receiver in the Class of 2025, per On3. He is also the 102nd-best overall recruit in Texas.
