Armijo's frosh-soph team ended its 1969 season with a final 3-5-1 win- loss record, which included three impressive victories and several very close scores. The jayvees battled to a scoreless tie in their first outing, against a tough Kennedy Club, then opened the Delta League season with a 16-O blank over Marshall. The junior Indians dropped the next contest narrowly, but came back with a 22-0 shutout of the Vanden Vikings. The next win was a lop- sided 44-l2 whitewashing of the Galt Warriors, followed by a near win a- gainst the undefeated Fairfield Falcons, ending the year, Freshman Mike Cordy led the Redskins with his play at quarterback, Cordy a fine passer, scrambled successfully often and was the team's punter. An- other freshman, Kim McGee, helped the squad greatlyg as the leading rusher and defensive linebacker, Elihu Askerneese, Dennis Mattos and Steve Berger were three more ground gainers, and Pete Dominguez provided a capable foot for kickoffs. Richard Fancher, Frank Cereda and often, McGee, caught the majority of Cordy's passes. Outstanding defensive players included Shayne Earthquake Cunningham, Pablo Iacobo, a standout last year on the Frosh team, and Jose Aveytia.
