BUD GWALTNEY ROBERT KEATING ALBERT MOUSLEY Tackle Quarterback Halfback Captain ROGER EMERSON Tackle JIM DeLANEY Tackle Hard work, team spirit and desire were the factors behi. the success of the 1957 edition of the A. I. football team. Led by Captain Robert Keating, who was chosen to t Second All-State team and who represented our school on t All-Star Squad, this group of boys achieved one of the best w and lost records in the past ten years. The highlights of the season, which showed a record oi wins and 3 losses, were the loss to Mt. Pleasant and the win o' a previously undefeated Louis I.. Redding. Trailing at Mt. Ple ant by as much as 20 points, the Tigers roared back to domin the second half, only to have time run out. Again in the Redding game this group found themsel behind at half-time, but came back to win in a brilliant te effort. From the loss at Mt. Pleasant, the team led by Al Mousl Tom Ward, and Junior Sid Smith in the backfield, and A Forster, John Long, and Roger Emerson on the line, won next three games achieving the distinction of shutting out tl opponents. From every point of view it was a successful season- boys have much to be proud of.
