Twice in regular season and once in district championship then beat them in Region Chanpionhsip, not uncommon I know. Also I think they had like 8 or 9 losses and won the whole thing? So what team that’s won state has had the most losses? (I don’t know that answer)
Bisbee Egeland finished 20-7 that year, with losses to Border Central, Cando, Munich, Rolla, Rolette, Minnewaukan and Langdon. The losses to Minnewauken and Langdon were in the final two regular season games, so its not like they came into the tournaments on a roll. They actually went 3-1 against Rolla that year, beating them in the district and region championship games. Bisbee-Egeland had an enrollment of just 50 in 1989.
Poorest records to win the state title since 1970:
Bisbee-Egeland 20-7
Mayville-Portland 21-6 (1972)
Milnor 22-6 (2013)
Sargent Central 25-5 (1979)
Sargent Central lost three times to Hankinson that year, but ended up not having to face them a fourth time in the region tournament.
