Here's another football coach who is closing in on 100 victories: Nicollet's Tom Murphy.

The Raiders (4-1) will host Alden-Conger (3-2) on Friday in a Nine-Man Southern Confederacy Conference game. Murphy, who has been coaching Nicollet since the early 1990s, has led the Raiders to state runner-up finishes in 1999 and 2002.
