MN high school football state tournament
If you didn’t know differently, you might never suspect Dassel-Cokato to be the up-tempo, fast-paced football team it truly is.
Many see the Chargers as a prototypical grind-it-out, 3-yards-and-a-blizzard-of-rubber-turf-pellets team that leans on its rushing attack. There’s no shortage of such teams in high school football in Minnesota, where the late fall weather holds sway.
Said running game defines Dassel-Cokato. What makes the Chargers unique is how they do it.
They move fast. And do it with a lot of players..
The up-tempo, personnel-heavy attack made the difference Saturday as Dassel-Cokato rallied to beat Pequot Lakes 29-26 in the first Class 3A semifinal at U.S. Bank Stadium.
