Being the younger Devils didn’t stop our Junior Varsity from bringing awards home also. While attending Auburn University and competing with 57 other squads, they were awarded 2 superior and 2 excellent ribbons and the Spirit Stick. You’ve got to get on down, and got to strut your stuff,” was one of the many cheers they learned at the NCA camp. Pom- pom routines, tumbling, pyramids, and dance routines were among the other things taught to them. They kept up school spirit throughout all the seasons. Jr. Varsity Capt.

During the 79-80 Blue Devil season many changes took place. Taking the field against Carver, the Blue Devils wore new helmets, jerseys, and pants. James Williams, the lead- ing rusher for the Devils this season with 1.000 yards, rushed for 150 yards but to little avail as the Tigers surprised Columbus 34-22. The first win of the season came in the sec- ond game against Central as the Blue Devil wishbone worked almost to perfection. Leon Gardner, Steve Sheheane, James Williams, and Darrell Williams provided the fire power as the offense rolled up 320 yards. Dwayne Wright led the defense with 10 tackles and 4 assists. The final score was 21-7. COACHES: Mike Sullivan. Frank Matthews. John Boles. Chuck Magoni. Sports World MANAGKR Mike Ritch. FIRST ROW Chuck O'ddl. Sieve Sheheane. Mike Barker. Pal Alston.
