FARGO — There is some extra incentive for Don and Mindy Brown of Festus, Missouri, to go see their son on the North Dakota State campus this weekend. They’re getting a family two-for-one deal.
Their son Preston Brown is a true freshman quarterback for the Bison. Older son Payton Brown is a starting running back for Southeast Missouri State and those two teams will face each other at 2:30 Saturday afternoon at Gate City Bank Field at the Fargodome.
The family includes uncles and cousins who are coming from Montana. The players’ grandmother has a shirt that is half SEMO and half NDSU, although the cheering in the stands will be one-sided in favor of older brother.
