Bob Kutzer

Skagit Valley Raiders - Founder

1973 - 1983

Bob Kutzer, inducted into the American Football Association Hall of Fame in 2002, was a Burlington-Edison athlete in the 1960's.  A 106 lb wrestler, and All-Northwest Tight End in 1961, Bob went on to create the Skagit Valley Raiders in 1973.  A team that suffered through some lean years, but also came on as the primary challenger to the Auburn Panthers in the 80's, the Raiders were a community stalwart for almost two decades.
