Wasn't Mark Merck also from Velva? Not sure how much he played though. I think there's maybe one or two more we're missing.

Mark was from Velva and Jerry Jenson was hear a few years before that not sure if either played much. There was also matt wiedler in 2005 or 2004. He was here one year and then transferred to minot state.Quote:

There was a tremendously steep hill at about mid-field!Quote:

People would just drive up to towards the sidelines and either sit on the hoods of their cars or stand amongst the players. And.....you guessed it, when the home team scored everyone would honk the be-jesus out of their Chevy pickup's horns!Quote:

I remember when a neighboring school (Powers Lake) decided to have a community fundraiser to install lights at the FB field. One of their cheerleaders said, "I don't see why we need lights at the football field, we never play any games at night?"
LOL
GREAT SIDETRACKING OF A THREAD... *YAWWWWN*
Classic Lake game in twin cities was on FSN last week, some sweet talent in that.
Park Rapids LB/RB Kevin Vaadeland was on recieving end on a 42-yard TD pass down the left sideline to give the Panthers a 14-12 lead with 1:27 to play.
Kevin rushed for 133yds and 1 TD. Kid is 2 way starting captain with RB and LB/DE sometimes.
DGF defeated Park Rapids are last friday 41-7.
