  Great Falls Bison Football

  This year is my youngest brother's freshman year of high school. Imagine our devastation when it was assumed that these boys would lose out on the opportunity to start their high school careers participating in a sport that they love. With thanks to GFPS and all associated groups, through social distancing, careful planning, and diligent hygiene-- these talented and amazing athletes were able to play for the very first time, at Memorial Stadium. Go Bison!

  Football During Covid-- AFTER of the Lost Season

  At the end of last year and the loss of the whole spring sports lineup, we were all disappointed to say the least. After all, they had worked so hard to not even be able to actually participate in their track season. Then the questions started rolling in-- what about next fall? What about football? At one point, it looked like it wouldn't even be possible, but somehow the district and state managed to make it happen with some limitations. At the end of it all, things turned out fine and the boys and each of the player's 3 allowed spectators got to enjoy this year’s football season. The stadium is much quieter with the same amount of energy from the players and the few lucky supporters who get to be there. They got to keep their season, they have had minimal cancellations due to other teams and contact with Covid, and I could not be prouder of these boys on and off the field. They got their season, they worked hard to keep it, abide by the rules, and to keep their season rolling through times of uncertainty.
