The Minnesota Vikings Prep Spotlight series presented by Twin Cities Orthopedics is back for 2022.
The Vikings will host a pair of high school football games this season at TCO Stadium starting with the September 15th game between Hopkins and East Ridge. On October 18th, Chanhassen will play Bloomington Jefferson.
The Vikings Prep Spotlight began with the opening of TCO Performance Center and TCO Stadium in 2018. The Vikings have hosted seven Prep Spotlight games since then, plus three state playoff games that first season.
According to a team news release, “the ability to host high school and youth football events at the facility was a primary focus in the design of the campus.”
