Lambertl The sophomore football team, With the help of coaches George Nordi and Iim McDonald, finished second in this year's race. They ended the season with a 4-2 record, their best in three years of competition. The moment of glory for the rookie T-Birds was their 19-6 victory over the Stadium Tigers. The sophomore gridmen never got their chance against Bellarmine, the only team they defeated last year, because both scheduled games were forfeited to the T-Birds. If the team keeps up the hard Work and improvement they have shown this year, We can expect a good varsity team in the future. One-Hundred-Twelve
