The First Football Team Lord Elgin Lost 26:6 HiUfield Won 24:7 UCC Lost 8:0 Ridley Lost 22:7 TCS Lost 28:7 Lakefield Won 7:4 SAC Lost 37:7 Old Boys Lost 19:6 At the end of the 1971 season the prospects for this year looked very dismal as only sl players planned to return this Fall. However, our spirits were lifted in September, particularly at the appearance of ' Football ' Robertson and an experi- enced running back, Swire, both fresh from football camps. Three weeks of hard practice ensued our arrival and all too soon we played our first game. The opponents. Lord Elgin High School, proved to be re- doubtable adversaries. Although the 26 to 6 score indicated a thorough thrashing, the game was close. At the end of the first quarter we were without the services of four of our stalwart team members, two of whom, Swire and Macfarlane 11, were not able to return for the rest of the season. Our only scoring play came on a fumble recovery by Colville, forced by the defensive line. On the first Saturday of our seven game regular season we faced Hill- field. It proved to be our only game in sunny weather. Our pride, a bit stung from our previous encounter, we put forth a much more productive display. Campbell, McKenzie, and Dickens all excelled particularly in this game. Our ne.xt game, at UCC marked the beginning of the ' Mud Bowls ' . In a fierce defensive battle we held the Blue and White to a mere eight points. Mullen and Gross, playing their best football, led the defense.
