The 30th anniversary of the 1994 Glen Lake Laker state championship team will be honored during a pre-game celebration Friday at 6:30, prior to the 7 p.m. kickoff between Glen Lake and Johannesburg-Lewiston.

“It hardly seems like 30 years, to be honest. It was not very long ago and I still think of the players as kids. I was just thinking about that the other day. Now they are young men with families and contributing very well to society,” former longtime Glen Lake football coach Bill Hollenbeck said. “(Winning a state championship,) is a moment in time that we all share and solidified us as a group. The younger guys, the coaches and the support people were all apart of it and we all acknowledge it that way. It’s just a moment in time that we’ll never forget, that’s for sure.”

Former Glen Lake team members and coaches are invited to walk out on the field to be announced at 6:40 p.m.
