AN ACHIEVED SEASG lunior Varsity Statistics Prove A Winner Coming off a losing record from previous years, the lu- nior Varsity football team shocked many as they hurled themselves into a District Championship. We had set three goals for this season: to have a good year, go unde- feated and be the District Champions, said Coach lim Palmer. Two of these goals were reached by the Hornets, although they fell short of one by losing to class AAAA lacksonville North and Hot Springs Central. We played a close game with these two teams, something most people wouldn't expect, said halfback Ronnie Andrews. The team did play well as they lost to Iacksonville by only one point. Unfortunately for the Hornets their leading rusher, larvis Conic, sat out of these two games due to injury. Conic, an all-district team member led the season with 401 yards total offense, followed by Ronnie Andrews with a total of 301. As well as a rushing game, the team had an outstanding passing game. All-District Quarter- back Iack Dollarhide passed the ball for a total of 408 yards and 19 receptions. Statistics proved the Hornets gained a lot of yardage as they watched for the champi- onship and gained a district record of three wins, no losses and one tie. ALL CONFERENCE. Front row: Jason Culp, Iarrett johnson, Ronnie Andrews. Second row: Doug Freeman, larvis Conic, lack Dollarhide, Scott Mechling.

We got Pride, is a familiar phrase among Hornet football players, who take pride in everything they do. They are also taught to take pride in injuries no matter how severe because it shows that they aren't afraid and play with their hearts. fi' 1 lmpatiently waiting for the recovery of an injured Robinson player, defen- sive end Greg lackson, tackle Mack Pharr and nose guard Russell Munns, rest up before the next attack. Down on the seven, Bryan McCuien is looked after by the football coaches and game officials. In the Green and White game Bryan received an injury that ended his season.
