J. v., Frosh Football Teams Show Spirit Both the J.V. and freshman football teams had very successful seasons this year. The J.V. team started out slow, but after their first two games, they became almost unstoppable. Coached by Paul Tuba, spending two or three hours a day practicing with Assistant Coaches John Aceves and Joe Gonzales, the J.V. team continued the winning streak, until they played South Hills, one of the toughest teams in the league. They went on to defeat Covina, and finished the season second in league. Though they lost to South Hills, they played well and learned to cooperate and work together to achieve a goal. Long hours of practice with Don Kennard and Mark Carruthers and strong coaching by Rich DeRosa, helped the frosh team shut out four teams, one by 46 points, and intimidate another team into forfeiting. Their most diffi- cult game was not against tfie esteemed South Hills, but against Covina, as the Vikings went to their last game with an undefeated season and the Colts went with only one loss. Morthview needed the win to become league champions and they played well, showing team effort and spirit. The score stayed close until the Colts barely won 24-22, leaving Co- vina and Northview League Co-champions. Diego Benitez starts the game with a kick off to the Workman Lobos.
