Most colleges told Jaxson Yanzick he was too small to play collegiate football, so, with a chip on his shoulder, the 5’8’’ 155-pound running back/kick returner will play this fall at the only school to make him an offer, the University of Montana-Western. 

Grace Jones, on the other hand, had received some interest and a couple of offers to compete in track and field, but after visiting many, she knew the one place where she would like to attend college was the University of Providence in Great Falls.

Jaxson Yanzick, a three-sport athlete at JHS participating in football, basketball and track, will be going to the University of Montana-Western in Dillon to play football, and study business administration. Grace Jones, who participated in four sports throughout high school, golf, softball, cheer and track, will be going to the University of Providence in Great Falls to compete in track and field events shot put, hammer throw, discus, weight throw and javelin while studying biology.
