            That is certainly a good connection for SDSU. IWCC is one of the premier JUCO's in our region.

                    On a side note, IWCC is doing a walk through at CAS on Friday around 12:30 on their way up to Wahpeton, ND to play North Dakota School of Science.
                    The Reivers are currently ranked #1 in JUCO. They currently have 12 players with D1 offers. SDSU was at IWCC looking at some players during their bye week.

                      Moe Ruesink isn't a assistant at SV. He's the AD. He was a head coach at Estelline, then Hamlin. Also, Travis Ahrens is an assistant coach in Flandreau.

                        According to sdhsaa website Moe is listed as an assistant. I am guessing a middle school coach?

                          That's probably right.
