Critez, Wes ead freshmen tolimany wins. Having a winning season is nothing new to the freshman team. The Coogs had another outstanding sea- son by compiling a 5-2-1 record. Strong-side-linebacker Jett Smith headed the defense by leading the team in tackles and always being close to the ball. However, even though you may have a strong defenseyou still can't win unless you put points on the scoreboard. This team went out and did exactly that by scoring point after point. Hav- ing a scoring average of 19 points a game gave the Coogs a chance to look at many of their players. s lsli W Loaded with good players, the Coul- igars had talent in every way that was possible. Andy Critez and Frank West who quarterbacked, Anthony Harrell who received their passes and Willie Kennedy who took their handoffs for numerous TD's, were some of the outstanding members of this strong offensive team. The Coogs who played consistently all season will return next year to play on the JV team and some even on the varsity. This was a season all Cougars will be proud of. 24 McCallum 6 14 Reagan 25 22 Austin 10 14 LBJ 12 12 Lanier 13 40 Anderson 6 20 Johnston 0 6 Travis 6 H, 1.
