Hecla native and former Northern football player Clarence Schutte later became an All-American football player at the University of Minnesota, where he gained fame as the man who stopped Red Grange. Schutte rushed 32 times for a school record - it stood more than 70 years - 282 yards and scored all three Minnesota touchdowns in a Gophers' 20-7 win over Illinois in 1924. The win is considered by some as the greatest upset in Minnesota history. The 5-foot-10, 168-pound Schutte also was a major factor on a defense that stopped Grange cold. Schutte also played at South Dakota State between his stints at Northern and Minnesota. (NSU Beulah Williams Library Archive Photo / October 5, 2012) |
