Lakota Nation Invitational to hold State Catholic tournament reunion
The State Catholic tournaments went from 1937 to 1964; St. Francis won the first four, Sioux Falls O'Gorman won the last in 1964. Holy Rosary, Sioux Falls Cathedral, Mitchell Notre Dame, Howard St. Agatha, Stephan and Marty Mission all won championships over the years. There will be plenty of time to visit, remember the good times, view exhibits, share a meal, watch some of the fast paced action of the Lakota Nation tourney and spend time in the civic center's new addition. For many years, Catholic schools were not allowed to participate in South Dakota High School Activities Association events. A lawsuit against the state and the association cleared the way for Catholic schools participation in the mid 60's. Duane and Dennis Brewer and Rol Bradford are only three of the many names involved in the last State Catholic tournament in 1964. If you have team or action photos that you would like to be included in any exhibit, email them to Dani Walking Eagle at dani_we68@hotmail.com. If you have questions or need additional information call Bryan Brewer at 867-1173 or Tom Casey at 441-9829 or e-mail Bryan at bryan_552000@yahoo.com or Tom at
