Sheridan Broncs reach 35 straight football wins, break Wyoming state record
SHERIDAN, Wyo. — Records are made to be broken and the Sheridan Broncs knocked down a big one Friday night reaching 35 straight football wins before an energized home crowd.
In a rematch of Wyoming’s last two 4A state championship games — which Sheridan won — the Broncs blasted Cheyenne East 48-18. In doing so, the three-time defending state champs broke the state’s record for consecutive wins, a mark set by Laramie between 1959-1963.
The Broncs forced four turnovers and exploded for a big second half after leading 13-3 at the break.
“It’s great to not let the people who started this streak down and (to) keep it going. It’s a surreal feeling right now,” Broncs’ receiver/defensive back Breck Reed told MTN Sports during the on-field celebration. Reed score on a long catch-and-run before returning a punt 80 yards for a touchdown.
Running back/linebacker Garrett Way not only found the end zone but also scooped a fumble recovery.
“We’ve definitely been focused on the end goal this season — the state championship — but we definitely talked about the streak and it’s a really cool thing. Just a team effort …it was really cool.
“We’re fortunate to have a Cheyenne East team here that’s going to come challenge us,” Mowery said in a pre-game. “I wouldn’t want a state record to go down without playing the best team.”
According to Sheridan Media, Sheridan’s 35 straight wins mark the nation’s seventh longest consecutive high school streak, and the most of any team west of Nebraska.
Wyoming’s record for longest ‘unbeaten’ streak belongs to Worland at 36. Sheridan can tie that record at home next week and break it on the road the following Friday night.
Gaining the knowledge to become an outdoorsy type of person isn’t easy. It takes time, dedication, and the desire to sometimes get out of your comfort zone. Sure, if you grew up in the outdoors, but it’s been a while since you’ve actually been out hunting, fishing, hiking, or camping, you may be a little rusty, but you have a leg up on those who haven’t.
If you’re in Wyoming, there’s a good chance that taking advantage of the incredible outdoor activities we have available has crossed your mind, but where to start is the big question. Asking others for help is one way, but there’s sometimes an element of intimidation or embarrassment involved.
If you’re a woman looking for that help and want to avoid the intimidation, you should really check out the Wyoming Game and Fish Department’s Becoming an Outdoor Woman (BOW) workshops this summer. It’s held at the Whiskey Mountain Conservation Camp near Dubois, and everything you need to learn about the outdoors is provided, including food and lodging.
The registration deadline is March 31, meaning you have just a couple of weeks to apply for one or all of the offered workshops.
There are multiple options available depending on your level of outdoor knowledge.
Basic BOW Workshop: Introductory level camp teaching outdoor survival, basic fly fishing, backpacking, how to shoot, outdoor photography, and more. There will be two of these workshops, June 5-7 and August 7-9. $150
Fly Fishing Beyond BOW Workshop: The focus here is on fly fishing. Learn the basics and then put them to use. This workshop runs July 30 – Aug 2. $150
Backpacking Beyond BOW: This workshop is all about backpacking, hiking, cooking on the trail, adjusting to the trail, and preparing for the trip. You’ll learn how to properly pack your bag, set up camp, and then head out on an overnight trip. July 30 – Aug 2. $150
Become a BOW Instructor: Here’s where you put your years of experience to work by sharing your skills and knowledge with others, helping them learn the tricks and tips of the outdoors.
Not only will these workshops help get you started on a life in the outdoors, but you’re likely going to gain some street cred with your family when you can teach them the skills they’ll need to get out and celebrate a Wyoming lifestyle.
