The last game of the season was against Elkton who had not lost a game but had three ties. This game meant the league championship. The Cougars, playing without services of starting tackle Rick Squires, rose to the occasion and powered Elkton 20-7 to gain the league championship and the chance to meet Colton in the State Semi-finals. The semi-final game was played at Crow. The Cougars without starters Noel Reece who had done an excellent job against Elkton, and Rick Squires, con- sidered by many as the best tackle in the league, started off well and controlled the game during the early part and scored first. Colton came back late in the 2nd period and went ahead 7-6 at half-time on the passing of Colton. Although the Cougars played well they had 3 scoring drives stopped on costly fumbles. Colton scored once more and the score ended 13-6 Colton. Although the loss was dis- appointing it is generally conceded that the 1967 Crow team was one of the best the Cougars have fielded. x 5, 15, J Mike scores on first play.
