It takes more to play ball than muscles Starting the year shakie with a loss to Marble Falls, the freshmen football team was unsure of what to expect for the next few months, but they picked the ball up and ran. The offense was not as big as most but compensated with good plays that used more brain than braun. They also made the most of their size by having powerful gaurds to make the time needed to make the plays. We have the smallest line in our district but we did a lot better than most people thought we could, freshman Jim Ostrander said. The team made up for not having a big offense by mak- ing their defense tougher. They held teams from mak- ing key plays which could have resulted in pionts. Their ability to hold teams also had a rallying effect on the of- fense, raising spirits at the right time. We play against a lot of good teams who outweight us but don,t outplay us. They may have the size but it takes a lot of heart to play, fresh- man Mike Peterman said. With a whole year to brush up any rough spots the the freshman team looked prom- ising for a next year season. We got next year to look foward to and a long time to workout before it gets here. A little work on our running plays should help, freshman Bobby Maxa said. 7 ' ' ■ ' C The secondary support each other with pats and words which let team- mates know when they have done a great job. Free-safety Cedric Williams puts an end to a potential scoring opportunity by opponents from Bastrop. v Layout By Benjamin Vallejo A 91
