The nail in the coffin

It looks like Eleva-Strum is going to win its first football state championship in school history.

Daniel Van Pelt intercepted a Blake Martin pass on third-and-long deep in Wildcats territory, and Nick Rogness scored a touchdown on a 3-yard run to give the Cardinals a 34-6 lead with 11:25 left. Rogness is the fifth different player to score for Eleva-Strum today.

It seems only fitting that the scoring in this one is being spread around. I had a column in today's paper on how tight-knit this Eleva-Strum group is, and I wouldn't be surprised if the guys are asking coach Warren Behm to spread out the wealth the closer they get to the end zone.
