Silent Recruiting Hotbeds: Tri-Valley Mustangs

While my colleague, Nate Wahl and I were sweeping the Dakotas for some late additions to the rankings, we both stumbled across a team, at the same time, where there was a lot of talent on one team. I knew the location of Tri-Valley from when I was in high school, the school is made up of the small towns of Colton, Crooks, and Lyons. All three towns agreed to centralize a high school and build it close enough so each town could use it. In college and I ran track with a kid from Tri-Valley, who was also on the football team at Southwest Minnesota State. He transferred after his first semester to another school within the NSIC, a kid who took a gamble on himself and it really paid off for him. This kid in The University of Sioux Falls RB <strong>Landon Freeman </strong>who just made the All-Conference Second team this last season. After sweeping through the Tri-Valley roster, Nate and I both agreed that they had a bunch of good athletes of some caliber that could get them to the next level. I am writing this article in hopes of making a breakthrough and getting a lot of these kids to play college ball. Here are some athletes from Tri-Valley to know. 2022 Unsigned Athletes: QB/DB- <strong>Owen Bessmer</strong> <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/11007790/616a779932ddb9089825d627">Vermillion Highlights</a> FB/LB- <strong>Isaac Mcfarland</strong> <a href="http://www.hudl.com/v/2GJVEy">Senior Season</a> WR/DB- <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="271506" first="Jaden" last="Siemonsma"]</strong> <a href="http://www.hudl.com/v/2GJRSj">Senior Season</a> OL/DL- <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="271504" first="Connor" last="Christensen"]</strong> <a href="http://www.hudl.com/v/2GJXt2">Senior Season</a> 2023: TE/DE- <strong>Austin McNulty</strong> <a href="http://www.hudl.com/v/2Gj0um">Junior Season</a> DB- <strong>Lawson Loiseau</strong> <a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/13288603/Lawson-Loiseau/highlights">Highlights</a> 2024: OL/DL- <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="294171" first="Isaac" last="Nehlich"]</strong> <a href="http://www.hudl.com/v/2GHWDD">Sophomore Season</a>
