Remember the 1991 BHS football season? How could you forget. An early season over-time win against Paulding, the hook-and-ladder play, the semi-truck that stated "Fear Us," 82 second to go, no timeouts, Minster with the ball and the lead on the Pirate 27...yet BHS won in OT 24-17.

It was the Dream Team. The team returns to Harmon Field Friday night on the team's 20th anniversary season.

The Bluffton Athletic Department will honoring the 1991 state runner up football team at half time of Friday's game against Crestview, according to Alex Hanna, BHS athletic director.

Despite the 20-0 lead going into the 2nd quarter, Delphos Jefferson found a way to make the game interesting. However, the Pirates were able to close the door and win their 3rd consecutive game to start the season, 37-28.
