Mead football coach Jason Klatt isn't really concerned with winning games. He's more focused on creating relationships with students, and holding his players to high expectations of how to treat females, teachers and adults. Klatt will never give up moral ground just to win a football game, and turning out great, young men is way more important than any victory could ever be — even the biggest win in program history.
Athletic director Chad Eisentrager said Mead is a much better place because Coach Klatt is around, and taking down the third-ranked team in the state on Friday night is just gravy.
