Tonight in Minneapolis it was all Lions from the very starting as they’d use 9 dashing touchdowns and fumble restoration returned for a landing to beat the Horton Chargers 64-0.
Minneapolis would get issues began simply 44 seconds into the sport as Junior Braylon Smith would take Minneapolis second snap from scrimmage to the endzone from 28 yards out. Sophomore Hunter Milum would miss the PAT and the Lions led 6-0. After a 3 and out from the Chargers Junior quarterback Ryan Parks would want only one play from the 36 yard line to scamper in for an additional Minneapolis landing. This time the PAT was good by Milum and the Lions led 13-0. Minneapolis would rating one time within the first quarter as Braylon Smith would rating his second dashing landing of the night, this time from 5 yards out and the purpose after attempt was good and it 20-0.
Minneapolis would begin the 2nd quarter proper the place they left off the first with a 7 yard dashing landing by sophomore fullback Mason Smith, PAT was good and Minneapolis led 27-0. Then with 7:39 to earlier than halftime the Lions would get on the board once more with a 2 yard landing run by Senior wing again Gabe Hueser. PAT by Milum was no good and it was 33-0. The Chargers would attempt some trickery on their subsequent possession and on a backwards go security Ryan Parks would scoop the ball up and run it on from 20 yards out, PAT was good and it was 40-0. The Lions would rating yet one more time within the second quarter as Gabe Heuser took the final snap of the half 80 yards to pay grime. The PAT was no good and Minneapolis would take a 46-0 lead into halftime.
Minneapolis would play the backups within the 2nd half and have been nonetheless capable of rating with ease. With 8:20 to go within the third quarter Freshman Grant Rice would use a pleasant block by Senior Aydan Worley to spring a 37 yard dashing landing into the endzone. The PAT by Milum was blocked and the Lions led 52-0. One other Freshman Brayton Peters would rating the final two touchdowns of the ballgame for the Lions. Peters would rush for a 15 yard landing with :35 seconds within the third quarter after which once more from 27 yards out with 4:52 left within the ballgame. Each two level conversions have been no good and the Lions would finish the sport with a 64-0 victory over the Chargers.
The Nex-Tech Wi-fi participant was a troublesome alternative as there have been 4 gamers deserving of this award. All 4 of the gamers scored two touchdowns a bit and will have simply been any of them. However we needed to go along with the Senior Gabe Hueser for the Nex-Tech Wi-fi participant of the sport.
The H&R Block of the Sport goes to a different Senior, this goes to Aydan Worley because it was his block that sealed the sting to permit Grant Rice to attain his landing.
Minneapolis is now 3-2 on the season and 1-1 in district play. The Lions will likely be on the street subsequent Friday as they journey to Seneca to tackle the #2 staff in Class 2A Nemaha Central.

Minneapolis is at the forefront of change in policing and community safety in this country. From formally establishing a new comprehensive model for community safety to a court agreement that provides the framework for lasting change, the people of Minneapolis and our entire local government have embraced reform and begun the hard work of redefining what safety looks like in our city. Together, we are embarking on a journey that will fundamentally change the way we do business for future generations.
That same push for progress guided our city’s approach to negotiating a new police contract.
With 40% fewer officers today than this time four years ago, Minneapolis is at an inflection point. That’s why we approached negotiating this contract with a willingness to think bigger on both changes to the contract and officer pay.
For decades, city officials have gradually given away managerial oversight to the police union in exchange for modest pay increases. The results: limited authority for police chiefs to manage a culture they were charged with shifting and limited ability to recruit and retain officers with below-market pay.
Even before negotiations for a new police contract began nine months ago, it was clear that we would need to approach negotiations differently. That’s why last year we hosted a series of listening sessions across Minneapolis that sought community input to guide the city’s priorities and included several City Council members on the labor negotiations workgroup. Thanks to months of input from residents across our city, we developed and successfully pushed the union to agree to significant reforms.
The city fought for and secured increased transparency, accountability and oversight. This agreement moves us in the right direction by:
• Giving the chief more discretion over job assignments and staffing requirements, so that the department can assign officers to areas of the greatest need and make promotions based on candidate readiness rather than arbitrary staffing percentages.
• Ending old and outdated side agreements and zipping up all of the written agreements into the contract so the city, the union and the public know exactly what has been agreed to in writing at the start of the term of the contract.
• Getting the union to agree that we can use non-sworn employees for investigative work, which will allow the chief to put more officers on the street focused on critical safety work instead of sitting behind a desk.
These are just a few key ways this contract answers the call for change. Taken together, these terms will increase the tools available to the chief of police to instill accountability and shift the culture.
This contract can also help us deliver on change residents from across every neighborhood are rightly demanding: replenishing the ranks. The downward trend in officer staffing is not going to correct itself, and the raises negotiated in this contract will help Minneapolis compete for a limited pool of candidates.
The increased pay and financial incentives will help give Minneapolis and the MPD an opportunity to stabilize staffing levels, which would in turn reduce reliance on overtime to fill shifts and response times to get to people who need help. Overreliance on overtime is a cycle that leads to burnout, causing more officers to leave and fewer potential applicants wanting to apply. This exacerbates the staffing crisis we are already experiencing. Making pay competitive is not a nice-to-have — it’s a need-to-have for the overall health of our city’s safety ecosystem.
Does this contract deliver on every change we sought? No, of course not. It is a contract negotiation, and compromise is the essence of this work. After months of engagement, good faith negotiations with the union and hard-fought reforms secured, this contract represents an opportunity to deliver meaningful change in policing and deliver more than lip service to the police officers who go to work every day to help make Minneapolis safer.
We are a city of progress. Further delaying this contract is not progress; voting on it is. We encourage City Council members to vote yes and to vote yes now.
Jacob Frey is mayor of Minneapolis. Todd Barnette is community safety commissioner. Brian O’Hara is chief of police.
