Clifton-Clyde Season comes to and End in 28-20 Loss to Quinter.

The 2009 Clifton-Clyde Eagles had another outstanding season finishing 10-2 on the season. The Eagles made playoffs for the 5th consecutive year. They also claimed their 4th straight District Championship, 4th straight Bi-District Championship, 3rd Straight Regional Championship and qualified for Sub-State for the 3rd straight year. This season also marked the 4th consecutive 10-Win season for the Eagles. Along the way numerous football team records and individual records were broken as well.

As the season comes to an end it is always hard to have to say good-bye to the senior class and this season was no exception. This was a very talented and dedicated group of young men. The seniors this season were: #2 Chris Sipe, #11 Brayden Bloomfield, #21 Drew Deaver, #22 Steven Steier, #25 Blake Biery, #57 Kade Fyler, #74 Dylan Koch, #76 Logan Brown and Jareb Branfort (videographer). This class leaves Clifton-Clyde with an overall record of 42-6 and they were a part of numerous titles and championships. As Juniors they were also part of the 2008 State Runner-Up Team. I would like to thank all of these young men for their 4 years of dedication to our football program.

I would also like to thank all of the parents for allowing me the opportunity to coach their sons. Being part of the football program not only takes a lot of dedication from the players but it also takes flexible and understanding parents. I have always been fortunate to have great kids that come from great families with an understanding that success comes from dedication and the concept of team effort.

Thanks Again!
Coach Steinbrock
