At that ...I grew up in Noxon and graduated in 1994. At that time football was still a pipedream and basketball ruled the sports universe of the Noxon Red Devils. I haven't been back since I left in the summer of 1994 but this post brings back so much about the small town I grew up in as well as some surprising changes!

As a guy who coached eight man football, yes against Hays, Arlee, Charlo (during their good years), Wibaux (during their good years, like they ever have a bad year), Terry (again during...), Denton, Stanford, Park City, Absarokee, Geraldine(when they were 8 man; I also played for the Tigers years ago),you get the picture; I now enjoy watching eight-man games. Oh, and I also coached against Noxon in basketball years ago. I plan to watch some six man games this year also, along with some Montana B, A and AA games. That's my hobby. Anyway, glad to have Small Town High School Football back.mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06921367514715154261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11124910.post-14281014662148802342007-09-20T08:54:00.000-06:002007-09-20T08:54:00.000-06:00I suggest you head over to the Eastern Plains of C...I suggest you head over to the Eastern Plains of Colorado. Though I've never been (always wanted to), six-man is pretty established in that part of the state. Perhaps you should start with Idalia. From Wikipedia: Idalia is the home of around 100 people. The school is Idalia High School and teaches pre-K through 12th grades. The mascot is the wolf and the school colors are maroon and white. There are two restaurants in town. One restaurant is called the Prairie Vista Cafe, and the other is the Route 36. The Idalia Wolves have won many 1A 6-man football state titles. Some of the students have won the Player of the Year award for 1A schools.mdt1960https://www.blogger.com/profile/09602497351643477314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11124910.post-41310134436517278822007-09-19T13:00:00.000-06:002007-09-19T13:00:00.000-06:00What a great blog.

While in high school, actually played Cokeville twice and won both games. Cokevilles coach, Todd dayton, is a personal friend of my parents. I have watched his kids. If you look at the history of Cokeville football, you will see every success has his name on it. From player to coach.<BR/>Not much 6 or 8 man ball around here (Colorado). But I am starting my quest to watch all the small town football I can. Thanks for the inspiration.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
