Edina isn’t happy with the outcome on homecoming losing to Bemidji 35-0, however the consolation is the Hornets were able to have a game.
Earlier this week, Edina Athletic Director Troy Stein was looking for an opponent for homecoming, when the Hornets original opponent St. Michael-Albertville had to pull out of the game. After Stein reached out on Twitter, Bemidji answered the call and made the three and a half hour drive south to play Edina on homecoming.

This was the first meeting between the two schools in football.
