1949-1950 Conference Football Champions:  Hector Bulldogs

The Hector Bulldogs won their 3rd consecutive 212 Conference Football championship by going 7-0 for the 3rd straight year. The Danube Hawks also went undefeated during the season, but had a 12-12 tie at Stewart early in the season. Due to limited scheduling difficulties Hector and Danube never met during the season.   The Bulldogs were led by All-State end Neal Person and Halfbacks, Howard “Shorty” Olson and Gene McDonald.  They ended the season with a 22 game winning streak.  Neal Person, Hector, 6’1, 185 lb. End, made the Minnesota All-State team.  He led the Bulldogs to a 23 game winning streak through the 1949 season and scored 105 points for the season.
