I’ve been to many (30-40?) state track meets over the years. Some teams win when their competition does not meet expectations. The Minster boys won today because they exceeded expectations when the pressure was on.
Chapeau!

- After extensive research, it has been determined that last night Brian Falk set the new Minster record with 8 extra points kicked in one game. The old record was 7 extra points, set by Brian Wolf in 1991 vs Dayton Jefferson and Jason Schultz in 2014 vs Sidney Lehman.
- Greatest coach in Minster history without a state title? ... yetReplying to @BruceMonninA lot of things can happen but NO one more deserving than Coach Topp!
- Early stat ahead of Saturday's playoff game: Jared Huelsman is only Minster player with 1000 yards rushing and passing in the same season.
- After the preliminaries at the Boys D3 state track meet, I project the final standings as: Minster - 33 McDonald - 31 Dalton - 30 Ashland Crestview - 28 Columbiana Crestview - 28 Columbus Grove - 26 Columbus Africentric - 25 Marion Local - 20 Every event will matter!
- Just noticed Brogan Stephey scored 18 points tonight. That makes him #1 on the Minster Career Points Scored list, as his 346 career points passes the old record holder, Ty Parks who had 344 points (2001-2004).
- Minster 27 - Marion Local 26 final
- It’s for certain: Minster hosts Riverside next Saturday, a few hours after we all get home from the state cross country meet.
- Minster's Bryce Schmiesing ties School record for points scored in a game with 36.
- Fantastic runs under pressure by Joseph Slonkoski and Alex Albers give the Minster boys a chance to claim a state championship. How I wish I was there!

- Halftime: Minster 307 yards College Prep -10 yards
- I am guessing I was not the target audience for that halftime show 😉
