Big Shout Out to 2 great FRIENDS &former COLLEAGUES @Coach_Slates and Tim Wolf. They have the Minerva Lions off to their best start in over a decade. The wins are NICE. But it’s AMAZING to watch that great community EMBRACE and SUPPORT the effort they’ve put in with their kids!

The Minerva community lost two people that have been very special to the schools and village of Minerva. To honor Gary Chaddock Sr. and Robert Gallina the football team will wear honorary red stickers for everything that they’ve given to the Lion Pride over the years!

🏈🐾 Minerva Varsity Football – Meet the Team Night! 🐾🏈
Our Lions had the amazing opportunity to hear words of inspiration from Pro Football Hall of Famer Alan Faneca 🙌 – made possible by the generous sponsorship of Loudon Motors of Minerva! @lions_minerva @Coach_Slates
Convocation at Minerva is different than other places. I’ve been welcomed into this amazing community with open arms and I can’t thank the administration enough for making this home. @MrScott_Minerva brings the juice and if you don’t believe me watch this!#GoLions #RestoreTheRoar

You win with people and leaders lead!!! @pgott33 had one of the best single season performances in high school I ever saw!! Continues to do great things and be a leader!
If you ever get to meet @pgott33 Maybe you’ll learn to throw a ball super fast. Or more importantly you see an ENERGY unlike anything you’ve ever seen. The GREATS are blessed with gifts most aren’t. But the LEGENDS have GRAVITATIONAL PULL bc of their energy to make others BETTER
