An awesome game under tough conditions and a perfect end for a great bunch of
Seniors. Thanks for the memories. Well Done! Thanks Coaches!

Congrats to my team on a undefeated season and winning the State Championship!
It was perfect football weather and Duchesne played a good game and made it
interesting and fun to watch. Congrats to them on a fine season as well and to
region 16!
I just hope that our B-ball team can do as the football team and play together as a team! If you can, I think a state championship is possible! But b-ball is a whole different game and when we have the kind of talent we have..... individual egos have a tendency to raise their ugly heads and the team work ends!
Any how enjoy the victory! You boy's, as a team, Freshmen, Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors earned it!

What a great game, alabeit a cold one! Congrats to both teams on a great
season.
Proud Eagle Dad | 10:40 p.m. Nov. 14, 2009
Congratulations Rebels. You are a fine football team. Today you captured your
dream! As Eagle fans we did hope however that all those Rebel Academic All-
State recipients would have answered the first call and gone to the north west
end zone instead of staying in the game at the end of the first half! (joke) Now
that you are champions, you have much to live up to. We are sure you are up to
it. Thanks again for the fun of watching a great team. See you in B.B. Good
luck and again congratulations.

Do they play 8 man or 6 man football anywere in Utah? Idaho used to have 11 man
a-4 now 1-a teams but now all teams that are 1-a play 8 man football even
though some schools have numbers to play 11 man. Just don't have teams
close by to play 11 man.
John Spuhler | 9:51 a.m. Nov. 15, 2009
Congrats Rebels it was a great team effort, what is most impressive about your
team is the way you conduct yourselves on and off the field. Coaches you are to
be commended.
N Sevier fan | 10:05 a.m. Nov. 15, 2009
Congrats Rich on the perfect season & the championship .Thought you were a
class act in our two meetings last season and it looks like that has only
continued. Great job on a well deserved Championship

Outsider looking in. This is why I love small town football. Comments on this
board show the love for the game and kids. And thats what it is about the kids.
1a and 2a football is a town effort. There is nothing better in sports.
Senior Rebel Parents | 11:45 a.m. Nov. 15, 2009
Wow, 9 awesome years echoing Cornelisons! We have loved every minute of it and
every boy is better because of it. Football brang you all together. Something
you could all do and achieve at together for a common cause that needs every
person no matter what their talent might be. Please you other schools out there
considering this, think of what football can do for your community that you can
not achieve in any other sport. Stay close you guys, remember what Bradley said
yesterday about splitting apart socially. Hang together this year. We love you
guys and we love #21 Hayden McKee!! He is a better person because of all you
guys and his High School football coaches, Junior High coaches (who were at the
game) and Little League coaches (who were at the game also!!!) Thanks to all of
you! I know that all of you would have handed that trophy to someone else if
they would have asked you to choose between your experience yesterday and
Whitehorse. Isn't is great you could have BOTH!! Love Waldo! (to my no name
friends and looks like I was right about Bradley's arm!)
Rebel | 1:03 p.m. Nov. 15, 2009
Great job team with the big win! I am going to miss all you seniors but go bring
home the trophy in basketball too! you guys deserve it

Does anyone know the condition of #44 from Duchesne. What happened exactly? Does
anyone know details?
Kalen Larsen #56 | 2:05 p.m. Nov. 15, 2009
Words cant describe the feeling of winning a state title. Ive had the time of my
life playing this year, and I would just like to thank my coaches, parents, and
community for this wonderful opportunity to play. I would like to thank this
amazing group of seniors for the wonderful year playing with them, Bradley,
Caden, Cooper, Tyson, Clint, Hayden, Tate, Kalon, Chad, Tyrel, Austin, and of
course Justice. I will never forget playing with you guys it was an awesome
privilege, and most of all the memories made while fighting side by side in the
trenches with my older brother will never be forgotten. I love ya Tyson! From
running up the hill by our football field with our team to storming the field
after we won, its all a fantastic memory. I love all you guys.

#44 from duchesne got twisted up pretty bad on one play! they thought it might
be a break or a tear but it turned out to just be a bad sprain on his knee! Good
job eagles! you played hard

HB | 5:17 p.m. Nov. 15, 2009
You guys have been our kids for 4 years and some of you more...what a bunch of
classy rebels. I am very proud of each of you. Congrats on a state title....you
all deserve it:)
Re: Anonymous 11:19 | 12:12 p.m. Nov. 16, 2009
Well.... Rich is also one of the smallest high schools in 1A. Sorry they
aren't playing schools twice their size. Just playin in their league =)
State champs!!!!!
Texas Rebel | 3:17 p.m. Nov. 16, 2009
Way to go Rich!! I am proud of you guys. I wasn't there but by reading all
of these comments it sounds like you were a classy team!! Good luck this year
in b-ball!! Keep up the hard work - it will pay off! GO REBELS!
Salt lake Native | 3:41 p.m. Nov. 16, 2009
Just wondering how many boys play football at RICH High ,and how many dress
varsity and why dont you play under lights.
TED | 4:10 p.m. Nov. 16, 2009
1A and 2A sports is awesome! You have to be raised and have roots in these small
towns to understand why it's the best.
I was raised in one of these small towns in Utah and over the years have told numbers of people about our childhood in this small town. The no.1 comment; "I WOULD GIVE ANYTHING TO HAVE HAD THAT TYPE OF A CHILDHOOD".
You have to live it to understand it!

Re: Salt lake Native | 6:14 p.m. Nov. 16, 2009
We have around 35 to 40 on our team, and they all dress varsity, and if
you've ever been to randolph you would know that it's way to cold to
have lights. Anyways that's the only reason that I know of why we
don't have lights.
But we have a championship community, school, and of course a football team!!!
Way to go guys, undefeated!

RE: Salt Lake Native | 8:39 a.m. Nov. 17, 2009
We would love to have lights, but a limited small school budget has not allowed
for this. We are also desperately in need of a new field as the one we
currently have does not hold up. Grass goes dormant to early and we play on
hard dirt and mud near the end of the season.
Rebel fan | 4:38 p.m. Nov. 17, 2009
If you've ever been up in the mountains, you know that as soon as the sun
goes down, it gets COLD. Yes, even in the summer. Playing at night would be
insane, therefore no night games. Budget issues, too, we are a poor school
district, Ranchers, no industry, etc. It would make no sense to spend $$$ on
lights. A new field, however would be a good investment. Currently the Track
team has to practice on the roadways or inside halls. We have no track, But we
do have championship trophys in track & field.
We make do and evidently..... do it well.

Good job boys I know it's been about a week since the win but you guys are
an awesome team and are great football players. You guys earned that trophy! So,
great job and good luck in basketball! :)
Rebel dad | 3:41 p.m. Nov. 20, 2009

Wow! I still can't believe how good the Rebels were this year.
