HUNTINGDON (April 15) — A ring presentation ceremony was held Wednesday for the 2025 Class 2A state football champion Huntingdon Mustangs. Players, coaches, supporters and fans gathered in the high school gym to again celebrate the monumental accomplishment.

The rings and the event were sponsored by Granges Americas. Representatives of the corporation were present for the celebration and were presented a plaque featuring a jersey signed by the team declaring appreciation for the company's "unwavering support and commitment" to the program.

Huntingdon Director of Schools Dr. Jonathan Kee welcomed all to the ceremony and thanked everyone for their contributions.

Granges Americas President Patrick Lawlor offered his congratulations. He noted that a number of parents and fans in attendance are Granges employees and expressed his hope to see some of the Mustangs join the Granges team.

Head Coach Eric Swenson said, "Tonight, we hand out these rings not just because we won a state championship, but because you earned them the right way. Through early mornings, late nights, pain, sacrifice and belief in each other when no one else did. Every time you look at this ring, remember what it stands for: the price of excellence, the power of unity and the pride of being champions. Wear it with honor. Carry this feeling with you for the rest of your life. I'm proud to be your coach. Congratulations, state champs."

Swenson and Clint Ezell then presented the rings to each player, coach, manager, ball boy, support staff member and administrator.
