CdA Crime Victim Tim Wolfe Honored
The
halftime remembrance ceremony was put together by the NIC
American Indian Student Alliance
and the coaching staff. The Rose Creek Drummers did an Honor Song before Stensgar spoke of Tim Wolfe and what a remarkable young man he was. Tim Clark, AISA vice president and longtime friend of Wolfe’s, spearheaded efforts to contact the family and get Wolfe’s picture and jersey to display. That jersey, No. 21, had been retired by SKC at an earlier ceremony. The coaching staff contacted the Shooting Star Dancers, a dance group from the reservation, and they performed in honor of Wolfe.
Clark also contacted Warpath Trading Post, which donated two Pendleton blankets. Those were presented at halftime, one to Wolfe’s mother, Charlotte Nilson, and the other to Wolfe’s longtime girlfriend, Tia Sines and their small daughter Kyleigh/
