Have we seen the last of the Bismarck-St. Mary's rivalry?
Posted: Tue Oct 28, 2008 8:15 pmWas this year the last time these two schools will play each other on the gridiron? Growing up watching these two schools play, it is sad to see it end... there were some good games at Hughes Field and a few at the Community Bowl...
In the history of AAA football or the highest division for that matter, no rivalry comes close to St. Mary's-Bismarck... yeah it's been pretty lopsided the past decade or so, but for so many years this was THE GAME... everybody looked forward to this matchup the last game of the season. From about the 50''s-mid 90's this was a fierce match-up....
Here's an article on it:
