Column: On the outside of Legion ball, a Premier arm

The question was posed of Ty Schwaiger that, given his arm strength, has he told teammate Fynn Ridgeway that the wrong guy plays QB for the Whitefish Football Bulldogs?

“All the time,” Schwaiger said. “Then he tells me I can’t throw a spiral, and I say, ‘Well, if the coach would teach me how to throw one…’ “

Instead Schwaiger will stay at tailback and linebacker for the Bulldogs this fall, while Ridgeway continues to call signals. They’re teammates in the summer as well: Both are playing baseball with Northwest Premier, a traveling club out of Post Falls, Idaho.
