Q. im, W T ,, rii, ,N , , ,. ,, Poor Offense s B-Squad Spoiler Long summer practices and scrimmages with the A-squad were of little avail to the B-squad, Long hours were spent in helping the A-squad prepare for their tough season. According to Coach Boldt, poor offense was the main weakness and the combina- tion of offense and defense did not work to- gether well. The boys were weak in individ- ual positions, thus unable to work well as a team, and scored only two touchdowns throughout the length of the season. Coach Boldt said the strongest unit of the team was the defense, which held Coon Rapids at the goal line four times. He also noted the best players as Cooper Wiggen, Don House and Greg Stroncek. With a record of O-6, Coach Boldt stated, More dedication and spirit should make next yearls squad a better one.

This, according to Coach Lynn Lundin, was why the Cross Country team had such a suc- cessful '67 season. The school record of lO:48 was broken four times by co-captions Greg Parsons and Bill Riley. Mike Peloquin andthe current rec- ord holder, Rollen Oliver, also achieved this goal. Coach Lundin said these four boys were the key runners on this year's squad. The Junior Conference Meet proved to be most outstanding. The juniors placed first out of twelve teams. At the Brooklyn Center Invitational Meet, the A and B squads took first place out of nine teams. Also, in the District Meet, Heights took sixth place out of fifteen teams. Coach Lundin concluded, This sport has taken much time to develop and the boys have done a good iob of progressing.
