The Marshfield Columbus Dons Football Story

Each season has its own chapter and ends with a roll call of leading scorers, All-Conference picks, and senior players. Final CWCC standings for that year are also listed. Appendices detail the history of the CWCC, records against opponents, and all-time CHS individual TD statistics for rushing, passing, receiving, returns, and place-kicking.  All 261 Dons who ever scored a varsity point are listed.
