Ortonville Trojans vs the Milbank Bulldogs has always been “the” rivals to watch!
Ortonville Area Health Services provided some halftime fun at the game last night. Anyone could sign up for a drawing (free bag of popcorn just for signing up). Two names would be drawn and they would play against Dr. Stacy Longnecker and Dr. Grant Botker in a friendly game of DOC (a version of PIG). Those drawn also received a few prizes for playing. It was all in fun… but a bit competitive.
Did Dr. Longnecker practice shooting some hoops before the event? Watch the video and you be the judge! The end of the video does include a few highlights from both the girls and boys varsity basketball games. GO TROJANS! Fun times, here on the MNbump.
