For the second straight year we were undefeated, adding another trophy to our school. This year's record was somewhat of a surprise because only five lettermen were back from last year's championship team. Many on the squad were small and inexperienced, yet the record shows these handicaps did not hold us back. Our first game was against Bitburg, a much bigger and more experienced team. But we won 25-14! After playing our first game at home, we traveled to Bad Kreuznach and played what proved to be the most hard fought game of the season. We won by a slim 6-0 margin scoring our lone touchdown in the second quarter. Our defense secured that victory by stopping all the Bear Kat offensive drives. In the next game at home against Toul, both our offenses and defense got together and defeated Toul 40-O. We then went to Bremerhaven to play our arch rivals at their homecoming. The game was close in the first half, but We erupted for three quick second-half touchdowns to pull out a 26-0 whitewash. Bremerhaven was the third straight opponent we had blanked. The following Friday we had our Homecoming pep rally at the bonfire and burned Karlsruhe in effigy. On Saturday We rolled- over their Knights 61 -6. We put 40 points on the scoreboard by halftime then cruised to our largest offensive barrage ever. ' This nine touchdown burst and an 11 -0 record in our two past seasons inspired us to beat Bitburg in our last game. The game with Bitburg was played at Spangdahlem on a cold, windy day. Both the offensive and defensive units filled to produce a sweet 35-0 trouncing of the Barons, which made us the undefeated champions again. Congratulations go to head coach joe King and assistant coach John Gjernes for the fine job they did in molding the 1963 champions. Lear Von Koch 37
