Very interesting documentary about the Wichita State football program - amazing story.
Of course, there's a Catholic League angle to it all: Carl Krueger, who earned a scholarship after playing only a year for the Saint Laurence Vikings - and had just made the first team as a defensive end as a college sophomore - was on the tragic flight. There's a park in Hickory Hills named in his honor. Glenn Kostal, his teammate from high school, was also on the same flight - he survived the crash.
