2 1 3 State Champion Yellow Jackets go undefeated' lBy Danny Townsend It all started in a place called Glennwood Springs, Colorado. This was where the 1983 football season began. 44 players and 3 coaches set out for hell weeki' in the mountains. This camp was to bring unity and respect to the players. After all, the next few months were to be the most challenging of their lives. The season started off with a win as the Yellow Jackets defeated the Snowflake Lobos for the first time in Blue Ridge football history. The Yellow Jackets ripped through the season killing every team they came up against. They demolished AA teams as well as A and B teams. The Arizona Republic rated the Yellow Jackets 3rd in the state with AA schools. For the past three years, the Jackets have taken runner-up at the State Finals. This year was not going to end up that way. These young men were determined not to let it slip away. The Yellow Jackets first met the Phoenix Christian Cougars in the quarter finals of the state playoffs. The game was to prove that Blue Ridge belonged in the playoffs. The Yellow Jackets came away with a smashing 34 to 6 victory over the Cougars. It was then on to Phoenix to play Morenci. Morenci was described as big and physical but that didn't stop the Yellow Jackets from physically abusing the Morenci Wildcats 22-0. The Jackets were now there once again, at the State finals. This time they were there to win. They were to play the Florence Gophers, who were 10-0. They had the two fastest backs in the state and were a high scoring team. The Yellow Jackets were 10-0 also and their technique was just to run right over their opponent. The final score was Blue Ridge 17, Florence O. The Blue Ridge Yellow Jackets were true Champions.
