Cody Lambotte Has Passed Away

Cody Lambotte passed away today. Below is what Allen Zlatnick had to say about him.

To me he was a neighbor, a friend, a co-worker, and an assistant coach. I can’t tell you how many miles he traveled with our family to attend wrestling tournaments. He worked tirelessly for the city of Rossville as a summer time employee and when he wasn’t doing that he was helping me coach football and after that it was off to help the wrestlers. He was a bundle of energy and was loved by all. He will be missed by many. Have loved working with many of my assistants coaches but working with Cody and Joe is something I will always cherish. Love you Cody.

Riley County Wins 26-20

   Riley County was able to complete most of the passes they threw, but the Dawgs were able to handle the Falcons on the runing plays.   Much like the game against St. Marys.   Those many pass completions doomed the Dawg defense.

    The Falcons scored two TDs in the first half before the Dawgs scored.   It looked like the Dawgs would finish the first half only down 12-7 but a Riley Co TD with :00 left in the half put them up 20-7.  Rossville then scored  two TDs to tie the score at 20-20.    Looked like it might be an OT game,  but the Falcons scored another 6 points with less than 2 minutes left.  Final Score 26-20 in favor of Riley County.
