The operating back will today ply their trade for Concordia College-Moorhead this autumn.
“It’s always tough to change a kid like this, ” Hendricks stated. “We have actually various other pieces. We won’t be as run-heavy potentially offensively or we are able to combine it up and possibly toss the basketball a bit more this present year.”

Regardless who’s the ball inside their arms when it comes to Lumberjacks, Seth Dreyer is indeed there to stop for him. The senior captain and lineman, whom could spend time playing on both sides regarding the distinct scrimmage, has actually two significant goals for 2016 — beating a rival and winning the section title.
“Personally, I would like to defeat Moorhead, ” Dreyer said. “They’ve sort of taken it to united states in past times few many years and beating all of them is something that I’ve constantly sort of desired to do. In addition, all of us objective (to-be) part champs means a lot given that it’s a tradition simply because so many Bemidji teams have done it before us and simply becoming successful is always a objective.”
