Several football athletes from the coverage area of The Grundy Register were honored with All-State recognition by the Iowa Newspaper Association as announced in a press release on Tuesday morning.
Gladbrook-Reinbeck's Thomas Mussig was named the captain of the Class A All-State team after the Rebels went 13-0 en route to a second-consecutive state championship. He's also the second-straight Rebel to earn the title of all-state captain after Colton Dinsdale received the honor in 2015.

CEDAR FALLS – Matt Johannsen’s first career touchdown will also likely be his most memorable.
  The Gladbrook-Reinbeck junior caught a 24-yard pass from Hunter Lott midway through the fourth quarter and took it to the end zone, scoring the eventual game-winner for the Rebels as they won their second-consecutive Class A football title, holding off Bishop Garrigan of Algona for a 20-19 win at the UNI-Dome in Cedar Falls last Thursday.

A tradition of excellence continues for the cheerleading program at BCLUW High School, as the Comets took home their third straight title in the cheer dance category for their routine at the state championships in Des Moines on Saturday, November 5.
           
After winning in Class 1A the last two years, BCLUW bumped up to 2A and won again, besting 12 other schools in their class for the top prize. The Comets also had one stunt group win first place, and another took second. For coach Kelly Trinkle, winning a championship is just as sweet every year.
