If we had an eight-man football team next year, would you play?

Yes – 10 No – 63

I do not want to complete this survey because I do not care if we have an eight-man 1B football team or an 11-man 2B team next year.

Yes – 57 No – 19

Note: The 8th grade class that participated with Dayton in a jr. high football combine this fall, voted 21 to 1 in favor of a combine with Dayton.

Student comment samples:

“Would the cheerleaders combine with Dayton?”

“We should wait until 2018 to combine. Next year we will have even more kids playing than we did this year so for 2017 we should go up for 2B 11 man football with no combine but we should wait until 2018 to see what happens. We did 2B 11 man this year so I don’t see why we can’t do the same for next year and see what happens but thing about combining after next year.”

“Perhaps we should get the Waitsburg and Dayton teams together and see how they work with one another and then decide.”

“Let us get to know the Dayton players and coaches. Also, let the football players help design the mascot.”

“If we combine we should be the Daytburg Carddogs.”

“Do the combine. More athletes mean more competition. More competition brings out the best athletes.”
