Mountain View Football Team Honors Fallen American Soldiers On Helmets

By Wendy Corr, Cowboy State Daily 

At Mountain View High School in southwest Wyoming, football is a big deal. The Mountain View Buffaloes have been state champions two out of the last five years, and the 33 players on the team pride themselves on doing the right thing on – and off – the field. 

That’s according to Brent Walk, who is in his 11th year as head coach of the 2A football program. Part of doing the right thing, according to Coach Walk, is honoring soldiers who have lost their lives in service to their country. 

Mountain View participates in the “Heroes On Helmets” program, in which students display an American flag on their football helmets that represents a U.S. soldier who never came home.
