We had a team that started a lot of players who had never before played on a junior varsity football team. The team was slowed down by a few injuries and a lot of soreness. The junior Lions had great support at all the games by their loyal fans.

Pine, who made it to the semi-finals of the state playoffs, showing that we did well in a tough conference. The Lions' powerful running attack was fronted by the quarterbacks Mark Davis and Kevin Wilson, fullback Phillip Whisenhunt, and halfbacks Lenny Fryar and Benny Weston. The quarterbacks' favorite targets were tight-end John Steward and split-end Scott Simmons. Five talented Lions made All-District Csee next pageb. Fan support was excellent, and games such as Mount Ida's thrilling 10-7 overtime victory over Magnet Cove provided an extra bonus of excitement. The players as well as Coach Stidman and the assistant defensive coach, Donald Phillips, put forth full effort to please their fans. Clark Davis, BACKFIELD: Benny Weston, Mark Davis, Phillip Whisenhunt, and Lenny Fryar. 'tiiiipag C i
