THE STATE With the opening of school, long-time observers of Purple Wave football expected good things and hoped for great things. Built around a nucleus of seniors who gave us a perfect record as freshmen and who had contributed greatly to teams as sophomores and juniors, the team had a firm foundation of gutty young men who wanted to win. They wanted to notch Coach Nix's two-hundredth victory during this season and bring home a state championship to a school already neck-deep in football tradition. lt proved to be a team somewhat different from other legendary teams at C.B.H.S. Talented, but lacking the super-gifted in- dividuals that gave the Brothers so much success during the sixtiesg they knew that their ability to win would have to depend on a total school and team effort. The four playoff games exemplified the total effort completely. The first two 6-0 wins over Southside and Brownsville gave the defensive unit the chance to make its contribution. The semi-final game against Father Ryan saw the defense shutting down the most potent passing attack in the state and the offense giving the Fighting lrish a lesson in how the game is played. The Dec. 2. contest against Chattanooga Baylor can only be described as a classic. For those who were in attendance, little has to be recorded in this Chronicle-for decades, the game will remain in their memory as though played yesterday. For the record, the Purple Wave relied on its most successful pass receiver, as quarterback Ronnie Skinner gathered in a Mike Pruett pass in the end zone for his first and last reception with 23 seconds left. The play gave C.B.H.S. a 22-19 victory and the State Championship. All photographs on this page courtesy of the Memphis Press-Scimitar and Commercial Appeal.
