The Laramie Plainsmen football program will have a new head coach when the 2017 season starts in August.

The 2016 Laramie Plainsmen football season came to an end last Friday with a loss in the first round of the 4A playoffs, but there was progress this season.

Seeking their first playoff win in 16 years, the Laramie Plainsmen will take on the Rock Springs Tigers in the first round of the class 4A playoffs Friday night.

With playoff seeding on the line, the fourth-ranked Laramie Plainsmen take on the Kelly Walsh Trojans Friday in Casper to conclude the regular season.

It’s the type of game the Laramie Plainsmen have been hoping for this late in the season, and Friday night they finally get an opportunity.

It’s a showdown of two teams mired in a four-way tie for fourth place, as the Laramie Plainsmen head to Cheyenne and play fourth-ranked East Friday night.

It’s rivalry week across 4A Wyoming High School Football, and Friday night at Deti Stadium the Laramie Plainsmen will take on the No. 5 Cheyenne South Bison.

The third longest rivalry in high school football is renewed Friday in Laramie when the Plainsmen host the Cheyenne Central Indians at Deti Stadium.
