Turns out that the NCAA sends your institution a plaque when you lead the NATION in specific statistical categories. These two came in the mail. #HighOctane Rocker offense also led NCAA D2 in total first downs and 3rd down conversions; without plaques. #PlaymakersParadise

@jakebsullivan is Rapid City’s own . a legend on the fields of the Black Hills, Germany, and soon to be Austria . we had a great breakfast catching up on his world travels, the people he met along the way and what the next play will bring for each of us. He’s family.

Small college football coaches across America are wondering why 17 of 22 players on the field at any one time in the college semi-final haven’t been removed from the field for uniform code violations. #SafetyIssue? #arbitraryrule

Hurting for the family and loved ones of @DerekSparks5 after hearing the news of his passing. #5 was an incredible weapon in the one-back offense as a player. Moreover, everything the game gave to him he returned back to the game through his coaching and mentoring. A real one. 🙏🏼.
Today our founder & fearless leader @DerekSparks5 passed away of pancreatic cancer. Coach Sparks was surrounded by friends and family at his home when he left this world. He fought to the end and is our hero.❤️.Please keep the Sparks Family in your prayers. #ClaimIt @CleatsVStaff.
