TV Sports 'Qs-View FOOTBALL The 1952 football season started with 10 returning-lettermen all seniors except 1. The lettermen were mostly linemen and when game time came the coaches made a few changes. The boys were of fair size and had plenty of scrap. The season went well until lack of size and fresh players caused a loss. The season highlight game was with R.O.V.A. as the Cardinals really played good clean ball and racked up a 20-6 thriller. We were the under-dogs and pulled an upset that gave the Cardinals third place in the Little Six which is the highest we have had in years. Alexis began the season with Reynolds and ran off an easy win 14-0. Then we encountered R.M.A. and our defense and offense just couldn't click and we ended in a seldom-found 0-0 tie. Before the Cardinals could get out of the slump, Abingdon slipped over a 13-0 win. ' Knoxville stirred the gridders up as they got rolling for a sweet revengeful 13-0 Wlll. A loss to Aledo hurt and only Stronghurst's win could satisfy the Cardinals. Rose- ville pulled another upset as they really played good ball to the tune of 13-0, which caused the Cardinals a bad loss in the Little Six Standing. The Cards went on to win the rest of the games defeating R.O.V.A. and beating for the first and only time a Corpus Christi outfit, which could really pass the pigskin. BASKETBALL This year's hardwood team had a shortage of players but they were fairly tall and had plenty of fight. The Cardinals really got hot as they ran up a season high score of 88-54 decision over Stronghurst. The highlight of the year was with the Aledo boys as we worked hard and long for a very sweet victory to the tune of 57-52. This is the first time in many years that Alexis has defeated an Aledo basketball team. Dick Lafferty was top point winner for the Cards with plenty of help from Tyrell and Staggs. TRACK Track has just started but the returning lettermen are making the season look bright already. Lettermen are Dick Lafferty, Dave Waight, Dick Staggs, Jim Jones, Larry Anderson, Bill Lafferty. ALL STARS George McConnell received first team honors in All Star ratings and Stanley Tyrrell, Dudley Purlee, and Bob O'Brien received honorable mention These boys earned the honor given them by working together and by working hard. I Alexis has a new trophy as a result of last year's efforts. The Little Six Cross Country team won the last meet to be held in the Little Six and also the only one Alexis has won for a long time. These boys won it and here is how they finished: CROSS COUNTRY U G 1 Dave Powell, 2 Dave Waight, 4 Dick Lafferty, 5 Bill Lafferty, 6 Howard Hinderliter.
