Sioux Falls Storm News Release


The Sioux Falls Storm of the National Indoor Football League is pleased to announce the signing of safety, Justin Landis. A South Dakota State graduate, Landis was a dominant force for the South Dakota State University (SDSU) Jackrabbits where he was twice named All-North Central Honorable Mention and was named SDSU's Defensive MVP in 2002.

The 6'0", 223 lb. Landis played a successful career at Colman-Egan High School. He was selected among the elite as an All-American Honorable Mention and was three times named an All-Conference athlete.

"Justin has been an athlete we've had our eye on for some time! He's had some looks with higher levels of play, including the NFL and Canadian Football leagues, so we are extremely excited to bring Justin in. He's a big, physical kid that won't let too many opposing players run over the middle of the field," says general manager, Colin Steen.

Don't miss out on your chance to feel the thunder with the Sioux Falls Storm at Old Chicago this Thursday Night. The voice of the Storm, Rich Roste, along with Head Coach Kurtiss Riggs, host a weekly show where they will discuss last week's competition against Billings, interview Storm players, and strategize for the upcoming game against Utah. The show will air live from Old Chicago before all home games, but can be heard on AM 1230 KWSN every Thursday from 6-7pm. Old Chicago will offer special discounts for all Storm fans in attendance during the show.

The Storm takes on the Utah Warriors at the Sioux Falls Arena this Saturday night. Kick off is at 7:05 pm and the first 1,500 kids in attendance will receive a FREE Sioux Falls Storm team picture for the Storm players to autograph.
