Sunday evening fans welcomed home the Winner Warriors the Class 11B champions.
Two days earlier the WHS football team played a dominating game in the DakotaDome as they defeated Groton area 54-0.
It was the ninth shut out for the Warriors who set WHS school history by being the first team to win back to back state titles.
The Warriors have finished the past two years with a perfect 24-0 record.
Coach Dan Aaker said the seniors ended their career with a 41-3 record.
He said this team is the most dominating that he has witnessed. Over these two seasons they have outscored their opponents 1206 to 61.
The coach said this team was both humble and hungry. “I could not be prouder of these guys not just as football players but who they have become. I have watched them grow into young men who play for each other and who care for each other. This group is a true team,” said Aaker.
As the welcome home concluded, Aaker said “What a ride this has been. This is a once in a lifetime event and I will remember this forever.”
