2. Long-term projects
2.1 Additional reports
The 1891 to 1910 time period has a lot of games where a high school team plays a college football team (varsity, or second team, or even third team). Additionally there are games with non-educational teams: alumni teams, athletic clubs, military teams, town teams, and YMCA (Young Men’s Christian Assocation) teams.
Significant work continues to go into documenting these teams.

2.2 Iowa College
Similar to the previous point, I’d like to provide a repository for all Iowa college football scores. Additionally, I believe historical conference reports for the Iowa Intercollegiate Athletic Conference would add significant value. Progress on this goal will happen in parallel to high school school research.
This project has gotten some attention in 2025.
Iowa College football scores
1889-1952: 1547 total
No published reports have been made. I expect this will be done in 2026.
2.3 high school conference reports
Generally conferences began in about 1920. Significant work has been done to display conference rankings and standings. These historical standings are really an interesting gem. Please enjoy these reports; they are really great.

2.4 high school class report
This is a new project for 2025. I believe I have full data to publish class reports for 1972-present. Class reports for 1983-present are currently published. Thanks to Chris Cuellar, iahsaa.org, for assistance.
2.5 Rivalry rankings
I’d like to develop reports measuring the quality of a rivalry. Clearly the most important factor is the total number of games played. The next factor is clearly a measure of the overall closeness of the total wins for the two teams. Thus, the best rivalry is when two teams play a lot of games, and the two teams have an equal amount of wins in the rivalry.
2025: I did develop a report to rank the number of games played between teams. I still need to add a measure of the closeness of games.
2001-2025: WDM Dowling and WDM Valley have now played 37 games in the 2001 to 2025 time frame.
