@ZierMike I’m fairly confident in saying you won’t be getting a 16-8 type of game this year hahaha

[Evan Mellmer @EMellmer21]

@ZierMike Playoff message all year… 1 more opportunity. Every game is the last time you will ever put the pads on. Play for the love of the game. When it’s gone it’s gone.

Region 1 on 🔥 today. Congratulations to LaMoure-LM, Hankinson, and South Border on advancing into the Final 4. Good luck next week climbing that mountain.

Levi is an elite ND athlete that has the opportunity to create a name for himself on the defensive side of the ball. We are excited to get a player from @SBMustangFB! - @coachlarsonmsu

@hunter_pinke STUD!!

[South Border Football @SBMustangFB]

First Sunday night full team lift of the summer. Awesome to see this many dudes in here grinding to do something special this fall!

[Evan Mellmer @EMellmer21]

@jimshapiro #1 it’s tough to say “I love you” but say it. Every day. They have to know you care.

#2 Conditioning time is ran by your guys. I pick one senior every day and give them a 15-20 minute window. You’d be amazed what they’ll put each other through and how well they all respond.

[Evan Mellmer @EMellmer21]

@loganncampbelll Good Luck! Can’t thank you and your team enough for everything you do for ND. And especially for our South Border guys this fall!

[Evan Mellmer @EMellmer21]

@jsimpfenderfer It’s the same people that bitch about a 9AM kickoff for Dakota Bowl… the kids in these games don’t give a damn who watches them on TV… those kids are trying to win a championship. That’s all that matters. Start that baby at 4AM, those kids will still be ready 🤷🏻‍♂️

[Evan Mellmer @EMellmer21]

@SawyerBenedict1 @KNOXRadioRyan Played in the 9AM title game this year… absolutely zero complaints. It’s for the kids right? Kids in that game don’t care who watches them on TV. It’s the experience and a championship on the line. Coulda played that baby at 4AM and we woulda been rip-roaring ready to go.

[Evan Mellmer @EMellmer21]

Huge shoutout to Sheyenne for coming to town and making this dual possible! Our guys gutted one out tonight against one of the state’s best! Proud of them!

[Sheyenne Wrestling @WFSheyenneWR]

We had a tough battle against South Border tonight. We lost 36-29 but we learned a lot! Our team is continuing to improve and we can’t wait to scrap at Valley City this weekend! #StableMade

[Evan Mellmer @EMellmer21]

@jsimpfenderfer Learned from some of the best. Appreciate you coach!

[Evan Mellmer @EMellmer21]

@hunter_pinke Your message last night kept ringing in our heads all day, thank you so much for that… obviously hurts. But I am damn proud of these dudes. Fought the entire game, the only way that South Border knows how to.

[Evan Mellmer @EMellmer21]

Been a lot of cool stuff this week… but this might be the coolest!

[South Border Football @SBMustangFB]

Not every day you get a message from @KingHenry_2 film room exploded tonight when this thing popped up!

[Evan Mellmer @EMellmer21]

The beard is getting a little out of control… but you know you can’t mess with a win streak!

[JT @jt_farabow]

WATCH: When I first talked to @EMellmer21 this fall, his beard was much shorter and his team had yet to play a game.

Now, @SBMustangFB is 12-0 and will be playing in it’s first ever @nddakotabowl on Friday, aiming to win the team’s 1st 9-man title.

@KFYRTV / #NDPreps

[Evan Mellmer @EMellmer21]

Honestly have no words… just proud. Beyond proud… And damn do I love my guys!

[South Border Football @SBMustangFB]

This team!!! The blood, sweat, and tears over the last couple years by these seniors finally pays off! Thank you to our schools, communities, fans, EVERYONE. When a group of people check the egos at the door for a common goal… this is the result! #DakotaBowlBound
