A few updates I’ve recently made to the site:
Coaches
Added Deaver-Frannie’s coach for 1951: It was Dale Dragich.
Games
Added Cowley’s victory over Deaver-Frannie on Oct. 26, 1951. (Added to the missing games list because the game is missing a score and a location.)
Added Tongue River’s 21-19 loss to the Sheridan JV on Oct. 17, 1957. (This game was originally listed as canceled. It was actually played.)
Added Hulett’s 27-0 loss to Vale, South Dakota, on Sept. 13, 1957. (Added to the missing games list because the game is missing the location.)
All-state
As has been the case for the past couple months, Jim Craig has been a huge help with all-state lists. Info for the updates below were provided by him. Thanks again!
Added Dave Eisenman from Sheridan to the 1968 Class AA honorable mention all-state list. I had him noted, but in the original list I had, only his last name — not his first name or school — was provided.
Also added John Klecker from Cheyenne Central to the same list. Again, I had him noted, but the original list provided an illegible name and had the player listed for Cheyenne East. That’s been fixed.

I also updated the 1969 all-state teams with the Wyoming Coaches Association teams, replacing teams picked by the UPI and AP pollsters. The WCA teams are listed on the all-state page; the teams formerly on that page but removed are put here for reference:
