Hermantown senior wide receiver Peyton Menzel, a Bulldogs recruit, will participate in the Minnesota High School Football 50th All-Star Game on Saturday, December 2 at U.S. Bank Stadium Minneapolis. Kickoff is at 1 p.m.

"Goes to show that hard work and dedication pays off if you want something bad enough," Hawks coach Mike Zagelmeyer said of Menzel earning a spot on the Team North roster. "I'm tremendously proud and happy for Peyton. And while it is an individual award for Peyton, the team can take great pride in it also. Someone has to be able to throw the ball to him, and the quarterback needs the time to do so."
