auction, dinner and dance. The proceeds are contributed to a track
athlete scholarship fund at BHSU in Larscheid’s name.

Sturgis for 27 years, died in an automobile accident in 2000. He also
taught and coached in Spearfish and Wall.

athletics. He was an outstanding high school and collegiate athlete who

BHSU with a degree in physical education in 1973. He competed in
football and track for the Yellow Jackets.
A Mark Larscheid Golf Tournament is being planned for next summer.
