Sheridan Broncs Football: Last night (Wednesday) the Sheridan Bronc football team had its team banquet to celebrate the teams’ third consecutive state championship and a 12-0 season on top of that.

If you followed the Broncs this season, you saw that the team scored early and often in just about every game, but in this past weekend’s championship game, things were a bit different.

There was no score after 1 quarter and Sheridan was only up 7-3 at halftime.

Coach Jeff Mowry explains what happened in the first half.

For the season the Broncs scored 608 points which is a Wyoming high School 11-man football single season record.
