An agile side step by Bucky sends a Nokomis player spraw- ling and the Miners on for a win. Ken Alepra Senior End Tilt 1965 FOOTBALL MINERS com- pleted their season with an 8-1 win-loss record. An overpowering defense which held the opposition to an average of only ten points per game and a quick, hard- hitting offense which averaged 33 points scored per game produced that enviable record. The Miners' only loss came at the hands of Staunton, 2-0. Two Gillespie T-Ds had been called back whenStaunton caught the Miners for a safety, giving them the necessary two points for the fame and sole claim to first place in the outh Central Conference race. END LINEMEN Excellent offensive and defensive play characterized the quick ends of the 1966 Miner gridiron squad. Rick Fulton and Bud Savant, playing both offense and defense, were aided by defensive specialist, Ken Alepra. Savant and Fulton were chosen to the All South Central Conference Team, with Savant receiving special mention on the Little All State squad.
