Gridsters Win Over BA, Kelley As the football season approached, anxiety set in. Players retired from their summer jobs and slowly rolled into the locker room. They decked themselves out in their shields of ar- mor and filed out onto the field. Through hot months of August, the team practiced twice a day. As the practices passed and became history, the team opened the pre-season scrim- mages with decisive wins over Owasso and Edison. The days were counted down until the opening clash with arch rival Broken Arrow. The game ended in a bitter defensive struggle with Charles Page coming out on top of the Tigers 7-2. This was a typical first game and I feel that there is much room for im- provementf' commented head coach A. D. James. The following week the Sandites played host to Oklahoma City Clas- sen. The Sandites prevailed 20-O, but not everything was clicking yet. It was hard to get mentally pre- pared for a team that we had beaten badly in the past, stated senior quar- terback Ron Hale. Then as things were looking up, tragedy set in as the number-one- ranked Union Redskins played host to the Sandites. The game ended with the Sandites chalking up 7 and Union, 2.8. We didn't execute our plays well and our interior line broke down and we fell short of the breaks, stated Coach James. However, all was not lost as Charles Page bounced back against the Kelley Comets to beat them 10-7. The win- ning play occured when sophomore Ray Driskell booted a 22-yard field goal in the overtime period to propel the Sandites on top. The game proved to be a bitter struggle, but I believe we played well, said senior Tim Fisher. The Sandites were then standing at 3-1 going into their first district game against Enid, but lost to the Enid Plainsmen 12-13 after a fourth quarter field goal was blocked by Enid. 30 Football F A Your 'hu Jr. . kt, TWO AGAINST ONE - Senior split-end Tim Fisher 1861 pulls in a pass to pick-up a first down late in the first half of the Enid game at home.
