In this next chapter of Blades Of Glory older Bloomington Jefferson Jaguars recount their days of playing for the the hockey team. They speak of the pageantry and tradition the program has carved out for itself in the elite high school hockey competition in Minnesota.
Even players that went on to play hockey at elite division one colleges, recall there days as Jaguars with even more fondness than their collegiate days. They talk about the large crowds of thousand of people that would pile into tiny frozen barns to watch adolescent boys younger than many of the spectators play a game.
This helps make one wonder if perhaps we don't set to much store in high school athletics. Really what is the great significance of competing in a high school sport?
