Athletics has always been important to Bartlett. Nothing can equal the unity felt during a heated fight-'tO win a basketball game or a freezing Friday night at the foot- ball field. We, as students and fans, are brought together in a feeling of pride for our school. The past few years have brought much enthusiasm about football, but not so long ago, the big sport here at Bartlett was basketball. In 1966 the varsity team, coached by Glenn Essary, won the title of Shelby County Champions. The next two consecutive years the Panthers went on to win the District Tournament. During this period there were high hopes and a good chance that Bartlett could make it to the State Tourna- ment and win. The incredible record for the 1968-69 season was 29-1. Last year the Panthers were named Shelby County Champions once again. , Since 1970, through the efforts of Coach Farley and Bartlett's finest athletes, base- ball has been a successful sport. That year we won the District Championship and went on to the Regional Playoffs. Four years ago we won the Regional and made it to the State. Last spring we made it to the District Playoffs but were defeated by Chris- tian Brothers High School. Among other sports at Bartlett are track and golf, which began in 1971, and tennis, which began in 1973. At one time there was a girls' bowling team, which won the County Championship in 1965. In the future when we recall 1975, we will remember these things about Bartlett's Athletics. . .

Super Record 9-2 Super Team Finishing the season with nine wins and two losses, Bartlett's Varsity Football Team was first in the county. Although the game with Iackson was a loss, the second reflected the strength of the Panthers and set the pace for a successful year. Tension was high for players and fans of both teams as Bartlett beat Raleigh-Egypt for the third consecutive year. The spirit produced by this game remained throughout the season, and for first time in eight years the Panthers won the homecoming game. The cli- max of the season was the victory over Hillcrest High School in the Milan Iaycee Bowl. 'Y if , H 1 , ' if - - A -r' i '?2.f ' - . , if- -e 'Q Q ,, V , an , ,,.
