T - 50 Vikes Were District Champs, State Finalist For the first time in Airline's nine year history, the 1972 edition of Coach Jack Gray's Vikings cap- tured an undisputed District 1-AAAA Champion- ship. The Vikings accomplished this by beating every team in the Shreveport-Bossier area. But Air- line's winning ways didn't stop there. Representing their district, the Mighty Vikings moved into the state playoffs and went all the way to the finals, handily conquering all of their opponents, and fin- ishing with an 11-3 record. The season began immediately after the 1971 sea- 9 son was over. With a large number of talented sen- iors, the Vikes had high hopes for the upcoming 'J 7 year. As the season progressed, more teams became victims to the victorious Vikes. Among them were Bossier, Southwood, Captain Shreve, Byrd, West Monroe, Fair Park, Woodlawn, and B.T.W. Then, on marched the Norsemen through the playoffs, all the way to the finals by beating West Monroe, Sulphur and South Terrebonne. Not until the final game did the Vikings drop a 6-0 decision at Neville. But it was evident, as most people knew, that the Vikings 7 had the better team. With all of their desire, pride, 1- 1 and determination, even though they lost on the 1 1 ,,,f,..,.1-1 scoreboard, the Vikings won the hearts of hundreds -.., of people.

Airline Skinned Kats The scene was a very hot autumn night in Bossier Stadium for the debut of the 1972 foot- ball season for both Airline and Bossier. It took Airline almost the whole first half to get started, but then the Vikings rolled to a 34-0 triumph - the most one-sided decision in the nine-year history of the traditional rivalry. The offense sputtered the first half, but two big breaks helped the Vikes put two touch- downs on the board in the first half. The Kats fumbled their first possession on the 28 and Airline scored in five plays. The next Viking score came when a Bossier field goal was blocked by Glen Branch. Ron Johnson picked it up and ran 55 yards for the touchdown. In the second half, the next two scores came on Steve Haynes to Jim Williams passes for 48 and 23 yards. Williams also added the final marker on a 38 yard pass interception. The Viking defense held the Kats scoreless, making ., , W. -sf,s,,qK ' 1 34- .Z za, 71:1 Mew-+ X.
