Rebels and Punchers. Huskies and Doggers. Buckaroos and Wolves. Together.

In 2013, Wyoming will play host to 22 new high school football series — seven in 11-man, 15 in six-man.

Changes in the six-man ranks will bring us most of the new series. Six of the 14 new series in six-man involve varsity newcomer St. Stephens, who is fielding a varsity football squad for the first time since 1965. Four of the new series involve Wyoming Indian and four involve Saratoga, both newcomers to six-man this year, while three involve fellow six-man newcomer NSI.

Three involve Kaycee, the only school scheduled to play all three six-man programs that were 11-man last year (Saratoga, Wyoming Indian and NSI).

But a few 11-man programs are playing at least a pair of new opponents, as well. Riverside is playing both Big Piney and Pine Bluffs for the first time in 2013; Lingle is scheduled to play both Wright and Burlington for the first time; Burlington, in addition to Lingle, is also playing Thermopolis for the first time; and fairly new co-op Upton-Sundance faces Moorcroft and Rocky Mountain in new series games.
