I’ve added the bulk of the all-state football teams from 1978, 1979, 1980 and 1981 to the all-state page. I couldn’t find the Class AA and Class A all-state teams from 1979, though. The microfilm of the Star-Tribune I was using had several missing dates in late November, generally the time the all-state teams were/are released. I’ll continue the search….

Anyway, check it out. Lots of familiar names.

    What I can remember (I’m guessing) is in AA from Cheyenne Central was Terrence Johnson, and in A from Torrington was David Howell and Steve Nighswonger, and from Kemmerer was Bruce Mowry. Also, in 1979 Lingle’s “Jeff Bremet” should be “Jeff Bremer” as printed in 1978. What amazes me looking back at these lists is that in 1978-79 school year Bruce Mowry who played for Lingle was not named all-state in FB. That year he was a 200 lb. (sophmore) full-back who was aggressive and fast (also a 185 lb. state champ in wrestling), and our (SEHS) key player to stop.

    tmillerwyo, I’ve fixed the Bremer name. Typo. Sorry about that and thanks for catching it!

    As for the names, mostly what I’m familiar with are the last names… i.e. Toomers from Cokeville, Ericksons from Star Valley, Haefeles from Douglas… Lots of last names are starting to show up about 25 years apart. 🙂
