Anthony Lopez and Gary Jensen rejoice with Coach K after the Glenwood victory. The Audubon Junior Varsity foot- ball team finished a short season with a 1-3 record. When asked to comment, J.V. Coach Tryon replied, “The defense was great.” One of the biggest problems the team faced was a large number of injuries throughout the season. Not only did this keep regular J.V. players out, but many were promoted to varsity to fill in at the skilled positions. Coach Tryon commented on the good utility play of Joel Elmquist on defense and the hard work put in by the rest of the team. 20 Football This page sponsored by Cozine Auto Supply.

On a Winning Note The Freshman football team showed much promising talent, despite their record of 0-5. Three of the games were lost by less than one touchdown, and a break late in each game could have brought victo- ries. “There is much potential on the team, and we can expect good things from them in the future,” said Coach Tom-Rasmussen. The sixteen frosh showed signs of excellent play, but lacked the consis- tency to win. With maturity and hard work, the frosh can gain victo- ries in the coming season.
