Lots of updates, courtesy of the Byes Project

by ⋅ Leave a Comment

Today I added 14 new game results to the database thanks to the Byes Project (now that it’s yielded results, I’ve decided to capitalize it). The following games were found on the microfilm and added:

Lingle’s 14-0 win over Guernsey-Sunrise on Oct. 6, 1994

Lingle’s 36-6 win over the Cheyenne Central sophomores on Oct. 15, 1994

Hulett’s 26-6 win over the Gillette JV on Sept. 6, 1994

Ten Sleep’s 28-24 win over the Powell JV on Oct. 12, 1999

Meeteetse’s 64-6 win over Wyoming Indian on Sept. 2, 1977

Basin’s 12-0 win over Meeteetse on Aug. 27, 1977

Preston, Idaho’s, 35-16 win over Kemmerer on Sept. 1, 1978

Marsh Valley, Idaho’s, 20-6 win over Kemmerer on Sept. 8, 1978

Dubois’ 26-0 win over Byron on Sept. 2, 1978

Dubois’ 43-0 win over North Big Horn on Sept. 23, 1978

Wind River’s 14-8 win over Byron on Sept. 15, 1978

Lincoln Pius X, Neb.’s, win over Sheridan on Sept. 9, 1995

Lovell’s 31-13 win over Newcastle on Oct. 2, 1998

Bear Lake, Idaho’s, 20-9 win over Star Valley on Sept. 17, 1999

Conversely, the overall records and winning percentages for 16 schools have changed, throwing some alterations into the standings by percentage and to the standings by wins. Also, Wyoming Indian’s losing streak from 1975-79 increased from 30 to 31 games thanks to the loss to Meeteetse; that change has been reflected on the streaks page.

The Byes Project is an effort to account for all “Open” weeks in which schools have no games listed.

As always, if you see an error or an omission in the game-by-game result listings, feel free to let me know. My e-mail address is pschmiedt@yahoo.com.

Another quick update — this one for Basin

by ⋅ Leave a Comment

I’ve caught another error in one of my season record calculations. This time, it’s Basin. The Bobcats’ record in 1985 was 5-3, not 6-2 as I had listed.

The error has been corrected on all the relevant pages.

2009 schedule and results page

by ⋅ Leave a Comment

I’ve added a page for the 2009 schedule and results. This page will be updated throughout the year with final scores from each game and will eventually become the 2009 year page when the season is complete.

I’m still trying to track down schedules (REAL schedules, the ones with kickoff times and dates, not just the ones posted by the WHSAA), so hopefully all of those kickoff times will be posted soon.

Updates: 1955-59 all-state teams and 1979 title game dates

by ⋅ 3 Comments

I’ve made two updates to the site recently.

One adds to my all-state project, as the teams from 1955-59 have been added. Click here to see those updates.

The second updates the correct dates of the Class A and Class B championship games from 1979; both games were played on Oct. 27 of that year. Those changes have been updated on all relevant pages.

Glenrock’s 1960 championship season

by ⋅ Leave a Comment

Just a short note to let you know that I’ve updated the state champions listing to reflect Glenrock’s 1960 championship. I have no explanation for why Glenrock wasn’t listed in the table, but here’s my excuse:

For those of you that have followed this site for a long time (and, hey, let’s be honest, that group includes one person — me), I had the state champions listed  on my old Geocities site back in 1999. I posted the list after the list ran in the Casper Star-Tribune, sometime either before or after the title games.

Using my self-taught HTML skills, I posted the list on my personal Web site (hence the sort of weird filename that has carried over ever since, wyofootball.html). I’m guessing the original list I used didn’t have Glenrock’s 1960 title listed on it. And my guess is that the list the Star-Tribune used to create ITS list sometime before 1999 was flawed, too.

But, as part of a larger project I’m working on (watch for it this fall), I caught the omission. The table has since been updated.

Oddly enough, Glenrock’s 1960 title was the last sub-11-man title won in Wyoming until Hanna won the first 9-man title in 1989.

Anyway, I got sidetracked tonight by this, and I don’t know if anyone else cares, but I thought it was interesting….

All-state updates: 1960 to 1964

by ⋅ 6 Comments

I’ve added the bulk of the all-state teams from 1960-64. The only one I’m missing is the Class B-C all-state team from 1963. Otherwise, that time frame looks to be fairly complete. Check it out.

I also added coaches for Burlington, Jackson, Meeteetse and Douglas for 1998. Look at those individual team pages to see those updates.

Small update for Big Piney

by ⋅ Leave a Comment

I’ve corrected Big Piney’s season record for 2004. That year, the Punchers were 10-1; I had given them credit for an 11-0 season, which wasn’t the case. The change is reflected on Big Piney’s team page and the overall standings pages.
