The Lancers of Amlierst County High School com- piled a 1-9-0 record this year. E ' en though the Lan- cer’s statistics were not ver) ' impressive, the team gained much vaduable experience and showed good sportsmanship throughout the year, ’ith the addition of a new scoreboard and a new ' name, the plucky Lancers also showed strong enthusiasm. With the loss of only six lettermen, the optimism for the team’s success ne.xt year is running high. The Lancers, behind the passing of L.F. Payne and the running of Carl jenkins, were able to record their only win against Brosville in our Homecoming Came. The Lancers also showed strong potentialities in their close losses to Buckingham and Cretna. A.C.H.S. would like to express their gratitude to Mr. Campbell and Mr. Thomas for their hard work in developing our team. Because of their pre.server- ance, the Amherst Lancers, in the fall of 1962 shovdd hav ' e a victorious season. Wilson Mclvor (No. 30) and Donnie Miller tackle a Buck- ingham player.
