WOW!!! What a season! There are so many individuals who helped make this season a success, so we will not even try and name each one, however, we would like to thank the booster club, alumni, and local businesses for their support. We are sure there are a lot of stories to be told and we will post them all throughout the rest of the school year. For right now we will just sit back and take it all in!!!
Thanks a whole heap, boys, for the wonderful ride, and thank you, coaching staff, for your commitment to our students-athletes. You too can leave your congratulatory comments by clicking on the feedback link on the right side of the page or post your feedback at the bottom of the page!!!

| 11/25/2005 | Awesome! What a great way for the Srs to end their high school careers and give the younger boys something to strive for. We are really proud of not only a winning team but of the sportsmanship shown by the fans, parents and players, just goes to show you are not only winners on the field but off as well. We had people from all over the state at the game in Lincoln and they said what a class act. These senior boys have played together since 7th grade and it just goes to show when you work together "as a team" as "one unit" what wonderful accomplishments can be made. Every person on that team played a big role in winning all the way from the student managers to the starters, there isn't one person that did not play a major role. What a wonderful memory to take with you always. Thanks to the coaches and staff and thanks to the team for giving us all memories we will cherish for a long time to come! | Bailey Family (Parents of #52 Jace Kluver) c21_bailey@hotmail.com Plainview, NE Bush & Roe Real Estate/Insurance |

| 11/27/2005 | I attended 2 of your football games this year and one of them was a playoff game.(Wakefield) How exciting that one was!! You boys were so much fun to watch. I have had the opportunity to see some of you during speech and drama seasons over the past 2-3 years and I was impressed with you then. As a parent of a student from another school, it was so awesome to see something so wonderful happen to a great bunch of kids. Keep up the good work in everything you do. Good luck to all of you in the future!!! | Brenda Johnson TAGGS14@Huntel.net Tilden, Ne. Nurse |
