Greeley I9, Arvada 6. The i959 football team opened with a resounding victory over Arvada. The passing and running of Jim McKay as well as the running of Cowon, Booth, and Somerville provided Greeley with their margin of victory. The player of the week was Doug Anderson. Greeley 40, Adams City 0 For the third time in three years the Wildcats have defeat- ed Adams City. Early in the game Ted Somerville grabbed a 60 yard pass from McKay to open the scoring. From this point on, Greeley dominated the game and Adams City was unable to recover. The player of the week was Manuel Ortiz. Greeley 40, Sterling 0 The Wildcats opened the conference season with an im- pressive win over the Sterling Tigers. The lopsided score gave an early indication of the Greeley High football might. The player of the week was Bill Bibbey. Greeley 41, Fort Morgan I2 An early Fort Morgan touchdown might have been a stumb- bling bl-ock for the Wildcat eleven, but the determined play of McKay and Cowan provided the necessary spark to put the Wildcat scoring machine back in action and defeat the Fort Morgan team. The player of the week was Gary Lucas. Greeley 66, Loveland 0 The Loveland Indians seemed to be no match for the Greeley Wildcats. Successive touchdowns by Cowan and Mc- Kay, early in the first quarter set the pattern for the even- ing's play. Shortly after the beginning of the second half the entire first unit was benched and the second uriit continued the onslaught. The players of the week were McKay, Cowan, and Somerville. Greeley 20, Longmont 'I ln the i959 homecoming tilt with Longmont, the Wildcats managed to grind out their fourth straight conference win on a cold sloppy field. The game was marred by many mistakes by both teams. The player of the week was Terry Williams. Greeley 34, Fort Collins I4 Forecasters predicted that the margin of victory at the Greeley-Fort Collins game would be small, but the Wildcat eleven would not be denied. On a surprise sneak play, .lim McKay scored the first touchdown in the second quarter. Af- ter the half time intermission two Lannbkin touchdowns put the Wildcats behind l4 to 7.

Greeley 46, Boulder 6 Greeley scored twice in the first quarter with high chinook winds pelting the Wildcats in the face.
