West tops South 34-6 Bridgeman receives honors Dayton Journal Herald -all area, WOL-first team, Southwestern dis- trict-first team and Kettering Oak- wood Times -most valuable. Although the varsity footballers suf- fered three losses this year, the West junior varsity finished a great unde- feated season under the leadership of ooaches Michael Virelli and assistant James Larson. Coach Virelli showed elation with the undefeated season. He cited the following players as the backbone of the team: juniors-Terry Hohm, Bo Arnold, Dan Kelley, Mike Meininger, Kenny Cableck and sophomore Steve Kiser, the quarterback. Junior varsity began their season with a shutout against Wayne, win- ning 14-O. Stebbins became another shutout for the reserve Dragons. The reserves kept rolling on with two easy victories over Beavercreek and North. As always the game between both of the Fairmonts developed into a real head knocker. The only score came on the first series of plays as Fairmont West scored on a 66-yard pass play from Kiser to Hohm. Defense held East scoreless for the remainder of the game and ended any hope of East's finishing an undefeated season for 1976. In the final game, West faced Center- ville. The Elks scored first as they drove the ball down the field to the Fairmont West six-yard line. Then on a fourth and one yard to go, Cent- erville had a five-yard penalty and kicked a field goal. In the final period Kiser connected with a ninety-two yard pass to Hohm for the victory. Coach Larson said, This team of sophomores really came along during the season. They were not the most- talented group of sophomores, but they improved the most. Dragons Rick Ross, Stacy VanHouten and Brett Glaser come off the field after holding Fairmont East from a first down.
