Varsity Football

2021 was a historic season for the MICDS Rams Football Program. A 42-28 win over St. Louis University High (SLUH) was the first win over a Class 6 team in the school’s history. Five touchdown receptions by PJ Behan ’22 in the Park Hills Central game appears to be a single-game record. After decisive wins over Westminster (49-14), Priory (42-7), and a homecoming shutout over John Burroughs (35-0), the Rams took on conference power Lutheran North and came through victorious (56-37), securing a second consecutive conference title. Convincing wins over Lutheran South (44-7) and St. Dominic (47-13) led to the final game versus Chaminade, which ended with an exciting 56-34 win; a 97-yard pass from Reagan Andrew ’22 to Winston Moore ’23 was the longest play of the season. The Rams soundly defeated both Soldan (62-20) and Parkway North (42-6) in the playoffs to earn a District Championship. In the State Semifinals, the Rams played Smithville, the #1 ranked team in Class 4, and fell 36-40 after a difficult fourth quarter. The Rams finished the season 12-1 and ranked #2 in Class 4 and #2 among big schools in metro St. Louis. Andrew was selected the Class 4 Offensive Player of the Year by the MOFBCA. The following players also earned All-State status: Andrew 1st Team QB; Steve Hall ’23 1st Team RB; Nate Schuckman ’23 1st Team OL; Bjorn Sjogren ’22 1st Team DB; Landon Gelven ’22 1st Team Kicker; Behan 2nd Team WR; Gus Baisch ’22 2nd Team LB, and Moore 3rd Team WR. The team captains for the 2021 Rams Football Team were Andrew, Behan, Sjogren, Baisch, Jack Hayes ’22, and Hall.
