Pates Rally in the It all began on a rainy night in Leeds. The Patriots from Midfield fought the elements of nature and the fired Green Wave to a 9 7 victory. It was the beginning of a fantastic year. The Pates overcame a 7-6 halftime deficit to wrestle a game winning field goal in the fourth quarter. The Pates opened up the scoring with a 9-yard touchdown pass from Ronald Cole man to Butch Hudspeath. During the second quarter the Green Wave came back with a T.D. There was no more scoring until Hudspeath's field goal. The Patriot defense played a great game led by linebackers Dennis Chamblee, Dennis Weatherby, and tackles, Terry Cockrell and Shoney Young. 60

Pates Take 2nd Step Toward Best Season Ever The Pales came home for their sec ond game of the '77 campaign. This was truly the second step toward our best season ever. Ronald Coleman threw a pair of T.D. passes. 4-yarders to David Powell and to Mike Fox. Butch Hudspeath scored on a 5 yard T.D. run and Charles Boren ran in for a 17-yard T.D. Hudspeath took care of all PAT's. Great defense, including a goal line stand in the third quarter, proved the Pates to be a well developed ball club. - Midfield McAdory First downs 12 9 Rushing 160 147 Passing 40 66 ACT 8-5 0 10 50 P.,Avg 17 I 42 61
