Manchester Wall of Fame
One of the most exciting aspects of high school football for me has always been when they honor athletes, coaches and even volunteers with special honors during half-time celebrations.
Well get ready Manchester because that is just what is going to happen on Friday during the Vandercook Lake game. There will be several athletes from the past who will be honored along with everyone from the 1993 football team. You may remember that team made it to the state finals with a 12-1 record losing to Iron Mountain. Those former athletes are being asked to come join the celebration and several of those will be there for the recognition.
The players being recognized are Richard Kniewski from 1966, Zach Maghes from 1996 and Katelyn Gall from 2006. It will be interesting to see these former athletes back on the field of play to be recognized.
This is a big night not only for the past Manchester athletes put also for the present and future that can look and see what they can become if they work hard, practice and be the best they can possibly be.
At Manchester volunteers are very important to the success of the programs and to the success of the athletes. Several of those will be honored at home on Friday night.
The following people will be honored for their service: John Hardenbergh, Bill Kemner, Joe Alexander, Jay Davis, John Hinkley, Gus Krough and Chet Meyer.
This will be a fun evening and you couldn’t ask for much better than a 2-0 start for the Flying Dutch. Manchester coach Wes Gall has expressed some concern for his team. They won fairly easy in the first game at Eastern Michigan University against their rivals from Clinton.
The game against Napoleon was a tough one but the team pulled it off and came away with a win. I like what I have seen with this team.
One of the players I would love to have on a team if I could pick an all-area squad is quarterback Nate Bossory. This kid is good. With his ability size and another year look for him at a Division 1 school.
Who knows maybe Eastern Michigan University and Ron English will come calling or if he gets to be good enough maybe he can go just 20 miles down the road to the Big House in Ann Arbor.
It is all exciting and it will start on Friday against Vandercook Lake. I wouldn’t want to be a safety or a cornerback on their team.
