'W' 'Z Spartans Gain Record-Breaking Grid Season Led by Coaches Jim McClain and Jeff Novinger, the 1967 Webb gridders chalked up six wins against two ties and only one loss. After being tied by Friendsville and Bearden in their first two games, the Spartans smashed Farraglt, 27-7, Claiborne County, 34-9, Christ School, 20-O, Asheville, 35-6, St. Andrews, 41-0, and Catholic, 46-6. The only defeat came at the hands of the tough Sewanee Tigers. The Webb offense featured the passing of Chip Howard, the catching of Alan Davis and Roy Emery, and the running of backs Bill Arnett, Sandy Carlson, Stacey Sonneland, and Turner Britton. Much of the success of the offense was due to the strong interior line, which opened holes for runners and provided good protection for the passer all year. The point total amassed by the team was 228, the most ever for a Webb Varsity team. The defensive unit, which gave up only 77 points for the year, was led by Steve Sonneland, David Kendall, and Robert Leyen. These standouts, along with other members of the squad, stopped the passing and ground attacks of their opponents time after time.
