The Spartan freshman team came away with a 5-2-4 record and a .625 winning percentage to share the CCC crown with Merced. During the season the Spartans found that when they were men- tally ready they had no problem in crushing their opponents, but when they weren't, things went wrong. We weren't mentally prepared against Merced. and it cost us the outright championship, were the words of coach Westphal talking about his costly loss to Merced. Once into the season the Spartans found that running the ball was the key to making the offense go. This was proven in a 34-49 victory over Downey which included 220 yards gained on the ground alone. In the same game Davis' first defensive unit held the Knights to only seven points. The Spar- tans probably had the best pass defense ID the league having forced 46 interceptions in the eight game season. Offensive standouts were linemen John Wheeler, Eric Sharar. Ron Owens, Brian Cody, and Aaron Hamilton. Responsible for the ground attack were running backs Benny Postley, Darrin Horne. Tai Lam, Andy Carvahlo, and quarterback Mark Nelson. Receivers who also gained honors were Brad Zwahlen. Chance Williams, and Chico Robles. Defensively the Spartans were led by linebackers Cody. and Carvahlo, line- men Owens and Terry Wiggs. and defen- sive backs Vanseng Prom, Zwahlen, Nel- son. and Robles. Freshman this year were coached by head coach Dwayne Westphal. assistants Bruce Emerson. Jerry Shuman. and Scott Hardman. Westphal was pleased with his assistants and said that they did a great job and put in lots of work to help the team reach their goal of gaining a conference championship. Freshman Football AQ
