SD high school football all-star game to make its return June 8 in Brookings
May 7—BROOKINGS — The South Dakota High School Football All-Star Game is returning in 2024 following a one-year hiatus and in a new location.
The game will be played at 11 a.m. Saturday, June 8 at Dykhouse Stadium at South Dakota State University. The game is free to attend.
The game didn't have the necessary sponsors in 2023 to be able to hold the game, resulting in the South Dakota Football Coaches Association canceling the game. First Premier Bank and Sanford Sports are the game's presenting sponsors this season.
Players were graduating seniors selected by the SDFBCA through nominations of high school coaches in the state.
The Blue team will be coached by head coach Brian Allmendinger, of Milbank, with assistant coaches Mike Murray, of Gregory; Matt Christensen, of Brandon Valley; Tom Culver, of Bon Homme; and Justin Briese, of Aberdeen Central. (Culver, the longtime Avon coach, was appointed as Bon Homme's new coach in March.)
The Red team will be led by Deubrook Area coach Nathan Lamb, while assistant coaches will include Brady Muth, of Yankton; Chris Koletzky, of Sturgis; Jacob Terry, of Elk Point-Jefferson; and Jared Fredenburg, of Sioux Falls Lincoln. Many of the coaches were holdovers from those selected to coach the 2023 game.
