Kudos to the Otter football team on a great season
Published Monday, October 27, 2008
Congratulations on an undefeated season and the conference championship in a very tough Central Lakes Conference. Coach Risbrudt continues to do an outstanding job. It is also great to see the Prischmann brothers continue to support and help build the football program.
Since the undefeated 1989 team was not in a conference the question was raised about the last time the Otters were undefeated conference champs and I thought I might have the answer.
It is possible that the undefeated Otters of 1955 and 1956 were the last conference champs.
The Conference was the Resort Region Conference consisting of Fergus Falls, Moorhead, Alexandria, Detroit Lakes and Breckenridge.
If this is the last time (52 years ago), it makes this year’s accomplishment even more outstanding.
Best of luck in the playoffs — Fergus Falls is proud of you.

The Daily Journal is happy to host community conversations about news and life in Fergus Falls and the surrounding area. As hosts, we expect guests will show respect for each other. That means we don't threaten or defame each other, and we keep conversations free of personal attacks. Witty is great. Abusive is not. If you think a post violates these standards, don't escalate the situation. Instead, flag the comment to alert us. We'll take action if necessary. It's not hard. This should be a place where people want to read and contribute -- a place for spirited exchanges of opinion. So those who persist with racist, defamatory or abusive postings risk losing the privilege to post at all.Posted by tippy98c (anonymous) on October 28, 2008 at 1:04 a.m.
