APPLE VALLEY, Minn. – Two Minnesota Vikings record holders – one past, one present – looked each other in the eye for the first time Thursday afternoon.
In 2016, Danielle Hunter at the age of 22 became the Vikings youngest player to lead the team in sacks. Hunter’s 12.5 sacks broke a nearly 50-year record that had previously been held by Hall of Fame defensive tackle Alan Page, who led Minnesota with 8.5 sacks as a rookie in 1967. Page was also 22, but his Aug. 7 birthday precedes Hunter’s on Oct. 29.
Both Hunter and Page were on site at Cedar Park Elementary School in Apple Valley, Minnesota, for the Vikings 12th Annual Playground Build.
