On to 3A…I will list the 3A teams based on the last two seasons of district classification. For example, today I will list the teams that made up District One the last two seasons. Sioux City Heelan was in District One, but they were covered in our 4A discussion of the Missouri River teams. Their 3A information was included there. The other seven teams will be in this listing. Something to keep in mind as we go through these records is the fact that many teams moved up or down with re-classification through the years, so I will indicate that when necessary. Without further ado, here are the teams and their records…
Overall Record:
LeMars 67-23 (one undefeated season)
Denison-Schleswig 57-33 (one undefeated season)
Spencer 48-42
MOC-FV 48-44 (ten game schedules in 04, 05)
Storm Lake 33-57
Estherville-Lincoln Central 28-44 in 3A, 15-3 in 2A (06, 07) *43-47 overall
Sgt. Bluff-Luton 14-22 in 3A, 21-33 in 2A (00-05) *35-55 overall
