J.V. Football 1980-1981 THEM 8 8 0 21 18 12 18 2 OPPONENT US Lutheran 6 Cathlamet 8 Knappa 14 Warrenton 8 Clatskanie 6 Neah-Kah-Nie 18 Cathlamet 0 J.V. Football Has Learning Season When this year’s season started, we had a large turnout and high expectations. With the experienced sophomores combined with a good freshman class, we were a greatly improved team. But it took us until the Neah-Kah-Nie game to realize our potential. In this hard hitting and physical game, we found it was actually fun to hit first and show our strength. In the end, we became the first team to score upon Neah-Kah-Nie and the first team to defeat them, winning 18-12. Hopefully the J.V. team will look back upon the past season, remember the positive and fun parts of the season and build upon them. With the dedication and attitude that was developed, Vernonia should be back in the State play-offs next year. 3 Captions 1.
