Formed By Two Teams The new coach helped us consider- ably although our record did not show it, explained Scott Ferguson. Coach Greg Snoad took the team to an 11 and 11 season. The season contained hard practices for at least two hours a day five days a week. The hard work was explained by Mike Kerley, We worked hard every practice but concentrated mostly on de- fense and blocking our opponent. Due to required eligibility, four of the thirteen players were removed from the team because of unsatisfactory grades. The coach had to bring up three players from the ninth grade team because of academic problems. The players, John- ny Hoag, Larry Stokes, and Sonny Spearman, did not mind at all. Larry Stokes explained this feeling, I had no pressure on me at all because I had al- ready played with these boys. It was a good experience and we felt privileged to be brought up to the JV team. The team played well all year but never reached its full potential , said Jimmy Burns. We could have easily won both the Easley and Hillcrest games, but we lost the game against Hillcrest and barely beat Easley in overtime, continued Jimmy Burns.
