Marionville in conf, we had one team each yr we didnt play. Made for some big games not played in regular season.
Coldest HS Game you played, coached, or attended?
- Thread starter revno
- Start date
Same night Stockton played Spfd Catholic I assume. Stockton changed into tennis shoes at halftime, cleats were just sliding on top of frozen ground.
Until Golden City & Greenwood dropped football in the early-mid 80s, the Midwest Conference had 11 teams. Along with GC & GW, were Greenfield, Jasper, Liberal, Lockwood, Marionville, Miller, Pierce City, Sarcoxie, & Stockton.
You're right. I went to that game. Went to the Stockton/MV QF game in 78, as well.
1986, I think it was round 1 of playoffs, or district title game, or something, Marshfield @ Camdenton. Driving home after the game, the radio guy said the windchill was -40ish. We played in tennis shoes because the field was frozen. It was a good night for us as Lakers. Winning helped warm us up, a tad!
Agreed. Happy to be on the good end of that one. Would have been an even colder night.
I almost forgot - 2018 Deer season Eve, District semi finals at Belton we played against Fort Osage at their place in Independence. It had to be around 0 degrees at kickoff. I Pads on the sideline froze it was so cold.
Next morning for opening day of deer season it was perfect weather around 20-25 for the high.

Steve Sater, Michele Mc Gehee and company. They were salty. We were down 13 to 6 at half , lost 20 to 6. They won championship that yr.
I enjoyed that one from the comfort of my recliner and big screen watching this:
In 2013, the team I played for in college played a national quarterfinal game in Montana in December. No need to elaborate, Montana in December speaks for itself.
What’s the rainiest game you ever attended Boz?
Now I've watched some games in heavy rain but none and I mean NONE, were heavier than the Ampipe - Walnut Heights game back in 83. I dont think we need to get into the events that rainy game spawned afterwards...
You mean your trashing Coach’s yard and encouraging others to partake in your criminal activity in exchange for your providing minors with alcohol?
Correction. I did NOT dump garbage on Coach Nickerson's lawn. That was CLEARLY Stef. MY involvement has only been ALLEGATIONS!!!
You guys down south Missouri don't know what cold is. Up here in the NW corner we get those winds out of Nebraska and Iowa.
Coldest temperature ever recorded for Missouri: -40° in Warsaw. 1911: November 11.
And you MO fellas dont know what cold is! Coldest temperature ever recorded in PA? -42f back in January 5th, 1904 in ole Smethport!
Why don’t you get on the PA board where people might give a shart about your Penn State Sandusky-loving fake fat arse?
LOTS of misinformation here. 1) I did NOT mention MY Penn State Nittany Lions in that post. At all. We were discussing the WEATHER!!! 2) The Doc Guys assembled HERE!!! On MoSports!! 3) Sometimes I do post on the PA board. NICE TRY BOZO!!!
And they STILL played the game that night.
On November 11, temperatures in Kansas City had reached a record high of 76 °F (24 °C) by late morning before the front moved through. As the cold front approached, the winds increased turning from southeast to northwest. By midnight, the temperature had dropped to 11 °F (−12 °C), a 65°F (36°C) difference in 14 hours.[5] The next day would have a record low of 6 °F (−14 °C) and a high of only 21 °F (−6 °C)
I hear the kids also walked to school barefoot that day uphill and into the wind in both directions.
Just got back from visiting some friends/family up in Tarkio and some in SE Nebraska and I can confirm it is just as windy/cold as it was when I lived up there last some 15 years ago.
I swear north of st joe is like a different climate. I live in Maryville but commute to KC daily. Weather can be so different.
NW mo can be very chilly, but Schuyler county, Clark ect is frigid. Winter of 92 had snow on ground for a month and a half. Kirksville for early track season is brutal.
Ok, you want cold. The winter of 1988 it was so dang cold in Maryville my car would start for 2 weeks because the oil was frozen.
Think it was 88 or 91 had snow on ground from Thanksgiving to the World's shortest parade in spring.
Remember that game well. The old field at RS set up and there was nothing to block the wind.
