70 f Football Stanley Oxner Todd George Mike Tarkington Jeff Brown Offensive Halfback Defensive Lineman Offensive Lineman Defensive End All-State All-State All-State All-Conference Nine receive honors As the season ends in football, there are those memories of a winning season the players can cherish. Even more significant are the individual honors that come after a hard and grueling year. In McClellan's first year in the 5A, the Lions placed three players on the All-State team, while four players made the All-Conference team, and three made Honorable-Mention. Stanley Oxner, Mike Tarkington, and Todd George were placed on the All-State team, while Scott Embrey, Orlin Loving, Jeff Brown, and Mark Greer, made All-Conference. Norman Hill and Earl Marbley earned Honorable-Mention. Though every member of the team does not receive individual honors, each member of the team realizes that a victory is a team effort and everyone is responsible from the All-State player down to the 3rd string Junior Varsity squad player. It all started in August two weeks before the first day of school. Two-a-days proved to be hot and tiring for many players as the summer heat persisted. Evading a Mills defender, quarterback Br Thompson picks up a first down. In the ga the Lions rolled up 249 yards total offense w the defense held Mills to only 116 yards tt offense. McClellan won the game 7-6.

The managers work long hours and were very important to the team. They kept the fieldhouse clean and prepared drinks for the football team during the hot practices.
