Bettw Ludc Next Yeav 24 “It was a long and disappointing season, but I think if the guys pull together they can have a really great ball club next year.” -Nick Cline Losing hurts more than winning feels good. This quote was made by a Boston Red Sox player after they were defeated in the World Se- ries. What does this have to do with Pawnee City High School Football? This statement tells what the Indians felt-a lot of hurt. The Indians started their season with a win over NCL but could only conquer one other team this year that being Falls City Sacred Heart. The boys put in a lot of time, a lot of sweat and a lot of sprints but the year wasn't to be theirs. Pawnee seemed to be pla- gued by injury causing many grid- ders to sit the sidelines. Don’t get us wrong-many good things happened too. All Confer- ence selections included Jason Kennedy. D.J. Weddle, Jim Brad- bury, Mike Lang, and Doug Bedea, with Kennedy also receiving the Omaha World Herald Academic All State award, and recognition in the Beatrice Sun as player of the week. As all athletics do, this year boiled down to the thrill of victory, winning the FCSH game in the last seconds; the agony of defeat, being beat by Odell; and the fun of the game, Ice Box Blecha converging the extra points. The boys that came out for football left the field in October as men who had learned, taught, and grown; no matter how the record ended. 1986 Football Team: Front Row: Nick Cline. Shane Friedly.
