 SReuAiwj Q$piMt Varsity football had a victorious season this year under the coaching of Mr. Mel Nice and Mr. Mike Simpson. Team practices proved to be tough and the games even tougher. Fun and relaxation however, was the reward for the players after a good workout. They had several spectacular games during the season. This success was due partly to the fact that the team cared enough to get together before every game and raise their spirits for the next night. The Knappa game was one of Vemonia’s outstanding performances! Knappa gave their best but it wasn’t good enough! Vernonia was victorious receiving a score of 22-12. In the Homecoming game against Corbett, Logger spirits were high and great power was shown against the Cardinals.” Vernonia controlled the game from the start and defeatd the Corbett Cardinals 48-6. The teams season was one to be proud of and came to a close with a 6-3 record. A record that the seniors and the high school will remember.
