CENTER RIGHT: Bionic Joe Plaskett explodes through the little gap the offensive line has created for him while junior Mark Bay looks around for somebody to block and finds it very difficult to decide which one of the Wilson Trojans to clobber. Wilson went on to defeat Astoria 25-0. Mark will be back next year as an aggressive senior fullback and will be facing a much easier league as Astoria drops down to Cowapa AA League. Astoria will then be play¬ ing teams such as Neahkanie, Tillamook, Rai¬ nier, Seaside, St. Helens, and Scappoose. BE¬ LOW: Quarterback Steve Mayfield finally de¬ cides to run the ball after being heavily pres¬ sured by the Trojan defesive line. Steve also known as Dang by most of his friends had a late start this season because of some mishap that occured at home. 16

18 The Astoria High School JV football squad ended the season losing seven games and winning only one the entire year. The record did not really slow the progress they made throughout the season as they lost many games by just a small margin. At the beginning of the season the JV squad looked like they could be a powerful ball club but had many changes in personel throughout the year which hurt their chances of really getting it together. ABOVE: Line opens huge gap for Mike Wullger as he races for big gain in league counter. BELOW LEFT: Coach Greg Price gives instructions to one of many quarterbacks on what play to run on the next series. BELOW RIGHT: Assistant coach Scott Holmstedt shows disgust at dumb call by officials as General Paul Minton trys to explain what exactly happened. The young team went through three quarter¬ backs throughout the year and a number of other injuries left the team with only 13 to 14 players left at the end of the disappointing season. Although the season did not go as good as planned there should be a lot of good talent moving in to the varsity program in years to come.
