A little Dutchmen history worth reading!

What does it mean to be a Dutchman?

A new story from Minnesota Athletes takes a look at the history and tradition behind the Melrose Dutchmen — from how the nickname came to be in 1939 to the incredible athletes, coaches, teams, championships and community members who have helped make Melrose athletics what it is today.

The story highlights generations of Dutchmen athletes across basketball, football, gymnastics, swimming, baseball, track & field, cross country and more — including several athletes who went on to compete at the collegiate, professional and even Olympic level.

It's a great reminder that Dutchmen Pride has a pretty amazing history. 💜💛

👇 Take a look at the story and see how many familiar names you recognize!
