The Jaguars played some great smash-mouth football on Saturday night. Here, Ben Borgerding plows his way ahead for a few yards at Lester Prairie.


After some scouting on Atwater-Cosmos-Grove City, here is one item I came up with. When you follow the link, you'll be directed to a rural Minnesota prep sports blog that beats mine hands down. It's outstanding.

If you want to fast forward to the notes about A-C-GC, go right to the bottom to read two sports reporters' views on the Falcons' game with St.Agnes.

The Falcons are led by Mitch Tauer, their senior quarterback. He rushed for 266 yards (career high) at Montevideo on October 8. (A crazy amount of yardage for a quarterback) Read about that game here: http://myprepsplus.ourvarsity.com/schools/school-article-profile.php?Article_ID=2091&Schools=|65|

Fun fact #1: the Jaguars' 41-6 win on Saturday night marks the second-biggest margin of victory for a B-B-E football team. The best was a 41-0 win over Kimball Area in the 1997 playoff opener. The 35 point margin of victory ranks just above the 53-19 win over Ortonville in the 2006 playoff opener.

Fun fact #2: the combined regular season record of the regular season opponents who defeated Lester Prairie/Holy Trinity in 2010 is 30-2.
