Sheridan HS Football: It’s game day for the Sheridan Bronc Football Team.
The 3-time defending state champs will kickoff the 2024 season today at home vs. Cheyenne South.
The Bison have fallen on hard times.
They haven’t won a game since 2019, and if Sheridan prevails, South would be the new owners of the longest losing streak in Wyoming State Football History, with loss number 39 in a row.
Bronc Head Coach Jeff Mowry says the team wants to see the Bison be successful and get the monkey off of their back, yet at the same, the Broncs know that they don’t want to be that team that helps break the streak, and if they don’t focus on themselves and do what they’re supposed to do, that could happen.
Kickoff for today’s game is scheduled for 6pm.
