DEJA VU!

The late New York Yankees catcher Yogi Berra once quipped "It's like deja vu all over again" after Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris hit back-to-back home runs in a 1961 game.
After the Minneota Vikings won section titles in both football and volleyball on Friday and Saturday, respectively, it felt just like that.
Reaching the state tournament has become the norm for both Minneota programs.
The football team defeated Lakeview 28-6 on Friday at SMSU's Mattke Field in Marshall in the Section 5A championship, avenging an earlier loss to the Lakers.
The Vikings (9-2) will open at state against Breckenridge on Friday, Nov. 11 in Alexandria.
Minneota finished second in Class A last season, falling to Mayer Lutheran 20-14 in the championship.
The Vikings' football team, which has compiled a 111-8 record in the past 10 years and has not lost more than two games in a season over that span. They are seeking their first state title since 2017 and eighth overall, winning in 2017, 2015, 2014, 2009, 1988, 1987 and 1986. They also finished as state runner-up in 1993 and 2013.
The volleyball team defeated Russell-Tyler-Ruthton 3-2 on Saturday at SMSU's RA Facility. It marked the Vikings second five-set win over the Knights this season.
Minneota (31-3) will take on New Life Academy in the Class A state quarterfinals at 5 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 10 at Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul.
The Vikings' volleyball team also finished second in Class A a season ago, losing to Mayer Lutheran in the championship. The Vikings will be seeking a fourth state crown after winning in 2006, 2018 and 2019.
In the past 10 volleyball seasons, the Vikings have compiled an impressive 280-44 record.
