I am a grandmother of a football player for Central High School in La Crosse. We played River Falls High School last night in the playoffs. I wanted to commend the team and coaches for some of the best sportsmanship I have seen. Your players exhibited good sportsmanship throughout the entire game. Even when they were celebrating their win (and congrats on that), a player even made certain the celebration was held far away from where the Riverhawks were having their post-game team meeting. I think we are too quick to find fault and blame and I wanted to bring attention to their good sportsmanship and let you know that I was very impressed with these young men. It's a tribute to youth sports and the coaches as well. I wish them good luck in the rest of the season!
