V S GAI FROM SACRIFICES Sacrifice was a big word for the junior Varsity football team throughout their up and down season. For a team that kept struggling for a win, it was extremely difficult for them to come to practice on Monday and get geared up to play again, Coach Brian Bean said. The amount of extra time the players put in says something about how much they were willing to sacrifice. Without a doubt, the game against unde- feated Milwaukie was one of the high points of the season. Oregon City led 22-18 with five seconds left to play. Milwaukie needed 25 yards to score. A bomb to the corner of the endzone, a questionable touchdown catch, and the high point crashed to the low point. Togetherness was very important and we were like a family, praised Coach Tracy jackson. He was proud of the team and exclaimed, They were the best team I had ever worked with Co Captain Craig Harris said I enjoyed being on the team and it was a lot of fun There werent any losers on this team OCHS OCHS OCHS OCHS OCHS OCHS OCHS OCHS OCHS Sunset Columbia River West Linn Lake Oswego Lakeridge Clackamas Rex Putnam Milwaukie Canby League 06 Season 09 ' 3! 7 0 35 6 58 ' ' 0 7 ' 0 22 12 46 ' 0 6 18 22 22 24 i ' 0 28 1 Scrambling from a Lakeridge defender, Sophomore quarterback ohn Herzog unleashes a bomb while under heavy pressure. 2.
