Finishing second in the Big Six and eighth in the state, the Tigers posed a formidable oppo- sition to all foe. Offensively, a heavy Cedar Falls line headed by the likes of Harold Strever and Terry Carlton opened large holes in the toughest defense to enable the Tiger backfield to average over four touchdowns per game. ln the game against Fort Dodge, for example, Chuck Lynch averaged a gain of 8.5 yards per carry with twenty-one carries. At home against Waverly, Dan Rubendall scored both touchdowns to wrap up a series of six straight wins. Defensively, the Tigers allowed an average of less than two touchdowns per game. One reason was Don Boxwell who figured in thirteen tackles against New Hampton to earn United Press lnternational's 4'Lineman of the Week" award. Team captain Dan Rubendall was a defensive as well as offensive standout, his tough tackling helped him win a berth on the All-State team. Behind the excellent team performance was the outstanding coaching staff headed by Coach Lyons. Guiding the team's best efforts, Coaches Lyons, Boals, and Young, deserve cred- it for molding success into Tiger football, 1963. Right: Portrait of an Artist: Coach Lyons master minds his team.
