Gridders have a disappointing season. Frosh struggle xpectations were high at the season's start In junior high 7th grade, the team was 6 and 1 and 6 and 0 in 8th grade, becoming NEC champs both years. It was different in high school. The freshmen football team, at best, survived a mediocre season with many players gaining needed maturity and experience. It was certainly a new experience to most of us ' said co-captain Tom Carlton. We only lost one game our whole junior high career. This was the first year of coaching high school football for Tom Carlton, father of team member Tom Carlton, Jr. Although the record left much to be desired, it was the general concession throughout the year that it was not the fault of the coaches. So why the big turn around? It's not the coaches replied Doug Wetherholt. They were strict, worked us hard, and really knew what they were talking about. Everyone played in every game. They were really fair. Wetherholt also added, We never gelled as a team. Team spirit was low and there was too much fighting amongst the team members. You just can't win that way. It was very frustrating for the team to go through a losing season when they were used to nothing but winning, which could have been a contributing factor to the unrest amongst team members.
