“The NIAA’s membership and participating student-athletes, coaches and contest officials are sincerely appreciative of the Raiders’ commitment to excellence of Nevada high school football,” said Donnie Nelson, Executive Director of the NIAA. “The NIAA and its statewide corporate partners are about creating positive and memorable experiences for our student-athletes. To have our state’s professional football organization step up like this and provide a first-class experience for one of our education-based activities shows how invested the Raiders are to our community.”
