Tootdall 011 evieuf ' 'te for a ood football team is a combination of good material, strong The main requisi g will power steadfast determination, mixed with the spirit of sacrifice and cooperation. 1. . Y This year I was fortunate to be endowed with a team of boys who possessed these qua 1t1es. Our record was seven games won and two lost, while playing a rough schedule against many veteran teams with experienced players predominating. ' ' ld h h h d beaten us the We opened the season against a tough eleven from Montpelier, a 0,w o a year before 26-7. Out playing them the whole game we reversed the score, winning 25-7. The next game was against the Rock Springs Tigers. Their line averaged 195 lbs., but it l ' t r smaller team We won 12-6 We spoiled Superior's Homecoming did very litt e agains ou . . l ' ' l d th bi est team in the state Star- next, 20-0. For our Homecoming, September 24, we p aye e gg Valley who sported a 205 lb. line. Evanston led 14-0 at the half and went on to win 28-19. Th t ' to Rawlins proved disasterous as we lost a close, hard fought game 12-7. Evanston e rip was leading with two minutes to go in the game when Rawlins threw a desperation pass from ' ' ' ' W h d 13 firstdowns to 8 their own 35 yard line which connected for their 5 point win. e a for Rawlins. A night game at Morgan, Utah, found us ahead at the half, 20-0. Morgan scored to hdowns in the final quarter giving us a 20-13 victory. Green River, taking advan- two uc tage of the fact that our fullback and both linebackers were out of action, tore our team apart with their big 215 lb. fullback to take an easy 28-0 victory. ' Finding ourselves the heavier team for the first time during the season against the Kem- Ran ers the first string ran up four touchdowns in nine plays. From there the sec- merer g , ond and third strings took over. The final score was Evanston 54, Kemmerer 0. I would like to thank all the boys on the team for their hard work, cooperation and the many sacrifices that made this a successful season.
