Number Crunching: Ben Davis Football

[BDGiant93]

People define decades differently, but Ben Davis Football finished the 2010-2019 period at 84-35 with 3 MIC, 5 Sectional, 4 Regional, 2 Semi-State, and 2 State Championships. Historically, this decade trails the 90's (115) and the 00's (97) in wins. It's third as well in winning percentage behind the 90's (.885) and the 00's (.752). Since 1980, the Giants are 352-124 (.739). Program wise, the Giants are 499-367-12 (.576). Next win will put BD at 500.

Thank you to Jim Pich for helping me get to these numbers. By the way, this win total includes a 1997 forfeit win over North Central (that John Harrell doesn't recognize).

Love this:   Coach Meeks does the same thing for every banquet packet to give to the players dating it back to 1898!!  RCHS also had our best Decade in total wins as well along with our 1st State Championship and Program's 600th win this year as well.  

Good Stuff for program historian buffs

Historians (and History teachers) are some great people.  😉

I'm just a dumb radio guy who meddles with history. Jim Pich is the man.

LOL.  That was directed @Coach Nowlin.  He knows I am a History teacher.  🙂

I thought the liberals had run history out of the curriculum?
