The lead changed four times in the match but it was a try to Wade’s Blake Wood 30 seconds before full-time that sealed the victory for his team.
Dummy-half runs resulted in tries for both sides to have scores locked at 4-all before a try apiece saw a 10-all half-time scoreline.
Griffith High quickly shot out to a 10-point lead as Anthony Sloane completed a hat-trick of tries for the night.
However, Wade High hit back with the three tries to claim the win.
