All-star game a casualty of COVID

Centre graduates Jensen Riffel, of rural Lincolnville, and Dalton Stika, Lincolnville, were selected for the state’s annual eight-man all-star football game scheduled for June 13 in Beloit, but the game was canceled last week because of COVID-19.

Riffel, a running back and linebacker, was a two-time all-league and all-district selection. He was all-state his senior year and a finalist for state defensive player of the year. He plans to play football at Ottawa University.

Stika was an all-state lineman. He remains undecided on college plans.
