Started working on all-time Carl Junction High School football scores, opponent, date and game location when I worked at The Joplin Globe 1997-2004. Had 1970-present when I left.
Recently has more free time than I wanted and picked it back up a year ago and currently have 1930-present.
Plan to do boys and girls basketball and baseball when I finish football.
Started working on all-time scores, opponents, dates and locations for my Field Kindley in Coffeyville. Thanks to your website was able to get the all-time scores but still working on dates and game locations. 10 years ago this weekend when Coffeyville made the Class 4 state championship, wrote a historical perspective and was able to find out the vault at the school had a list of every coach for each season and overall record for each season but no list of all-time scores and opponents.
Earlier this month FKHS contacted me asking to help compile season by season statistics. They had a junior running back rush for 381 yards in a single game and no one knew if it was a school single game record or a SEK single game record.
Spoke with Anvil Welch (I know he calls you often) and he said not a day goes by that he wishes Jack Harris was still alive and that his records (such immaculate and complete records) had never been thrown away by the Parsons Sun.
Craig Null, former coach/teacher in Independence who recently authored a book about the history of Kayo Emmot called “Go Hard — The Kayo Emmot Story.”
He wants his next book project to be the history of boys basketball in Southeast Kansas. I told him I want to help with the project. Once I finish the Carl Junction projects, I’ll finish doing Field Kindley football, boys basketball and baseball and he thought we could collaborate on a book.
Need to call you sometime and catch up. Thanks for all you do and your time doing research.
