My favorite was BCLUW-GMG.

BCLUW plays AGWSR as these two schools are in the same conference. We also have a school in Iowa named Interstate 35. They are the Roadrunners.

Awe, memories. My first varsity game was North Polk @ CMB.

Oh yeah, I'd forgotten about I-35, about an hour south of Des Moines.

I had this game in Conrad (the C in BCLUW) this year.

FWIW: Beaman-Conrad-Liscomb-Union-Whitten and Ackley-Geneva-Wellsburg-Steamboat Rock. Ackley has about 1800 people. All the rest of the 8 towns combined might make that total. Maybe.
