Cougars got revenge for their only defeat last year, but lost the final game to ruin an undefeated season. After avenging a loss to Pueblo last year, the J.V.'s dropped their final game to Tucson High. Many new plays and formations were used in an offense that averaged 36 points a game. This offense helped the J.V.'s capture the mythical city crown for the first time in Sahuaro's football history. We accomplished the purpose of pre- paring players for next year's varsity, noted Ray Comstock, the J.V. coach. We weren't that far from an 8-1 sea- son, Coach Billy Lopez reflected. We lost only one game badly. The other two losses were extremely close. We had a good defense but our offense had trouble getting started. In the Salpointe and Douglas games, the frosh had to come from behind in the second half to tie the score. In the Pueblo game, failure to make the extra points spelled an 8-6 defeat. The final record was four wins, three llosses, and two ties. It was the second year in a row the freshmen had man- aged a winning record. SPORTS 119
