Before the regular season finale with Lakeland High, Oakley Pettit of the Sandpoint High Cedar Post interviewed former Green Bay Packer great Jerry Kramer. Kramer was on hand to present a golden football from the NFL to Sandpoint High. The footballs were presented to high schools nationwide that had a former player play in a Super Bowl. Kramer, who graduated from Sandpoint High, played on the Green Bay teams that won Super Bowl I & II. You can read Pettit's question-and-answer interview with Kramer here.
