I was at that game on saturday and st.john was getting it handed to them for the whole first half but they stayed composed and prevalied over all adversity even the adversity that they brought on themselves. St.John runs a triple option so they do get a lot of yards inside. Now I dont think that any team is going to run away with this game but i can gurantee that these st.john kids are going to come out like none other. This is the farthest st.john has ever been and the last time they went to state in any team sport was in '76 in girls basketball. The town is crazy about this opportunity the crowd that they bring in is just crazy, its not only st john but its also all the surronding towns like belcourt, rolla, dunseith, rollete, bottineau. I know that a lot of peeps say that there isnt a true homefield advantage in highschool football but when you got close to 900 hundred peeps on one side it has to come into affect. I wish the best of luck to both teams but im going to have to take them hardnosed kids from st.john in a close battle. Make that town proud boys.
I can almost guarantee that St. Johns is very proud of them already.
