The Stan and Strtt 64 defeats and counting Tor Minnesota High school by Mike Nadel Glenville Minn. A for 64 fall fridays since 1978. At about 9 30 p.m., dozens of purple Clad Glenville Tro Jans have slowly sadly staggered off the football Field. It has been a Long time since they be had reason to act otherwise. Glenville High school s football team has never been no. I. The school has always been too Small and in too Tough a conference. But it had always been respectable. A 4-5 record Here a 3-6 there. Maybe even a 5-4. But 0-64? if there s a Way to lose we be found it said Bill Bjorklund once a successful prep school coach in Minnesota who came to Glen Ville As superintendent of schools 14 years ago seven years before the Streak started. It s the nation s second longest losing Streak in american High school football history eight games shy of the record of 72 by Iberia mo., during 1965-74. The last football game we won my Sec Ond oldest son was a senior Bjorklund said. Now he s finished College and Grad school he s taught for a year he s decided to go Back to school and he s started veterinary school at the University of on sept. 8, 1978, Glenville evened its season record Al 1-1 with an 18-6 Victory Over Minnesota Lake.

Does lie remember it had we known we were going to lose them All 1 would have remembered every play said Olson whose son Mike is the trojans other senior co Captain. But we had won football games before and i just assumed. Olson s trojans lost their last seven games of 1978. In his last season As coach 1979, Glenville went 0-9. In three seasons under his successor Larry Buck the Tro Jans were 0-27. In one year under Buck s successor Mike Roberts they were 0-9.

What should i have changed but second go cussing in t Gonna get you Bjorklund laments what he Calls a Lack of commitment on the part of the Community in general and the High school s boys in particular. We have 44 kids in our Junior class 27 boys and four Are out for foot Ball he said. They talk about losing building character. But you Don t have to lose to build character do you until the student body and the Community Are willing to make the necessary commit ments to win. They re going to have to be satisfied to either lose or discontinue the the elder Olson wishes people would spend More time thinking about the Good things at Glenville. The softball team has been Strong he said and the school has one of the leading agriculture programs in the slate. And he tries to protect the psyches of the football players. When the Vikings or twins go through Tough times they arc pros and Are paid to take the heat he said.
