MATADORS FIGHT VALIANTLY TO RETAIN TOP CONFERENCE STANDING The M'ghty Estacado Mitadors fought valiantly this season to retain a top standing in conference play-offs. Fighting valiantly in mud and rain, the fvbts fell to larger conference rivals the Plainview Bulldogs with the score Plainview 7 - Estacado, 11. EHS players rallied in the second contest of the season as they battled the Lubbock High Wssterners for the first conference game. Strengthened by brilliant passing plays by Danny Griffin and runs by tailback, Kelvin Johnson, the Mitadors tranpled the Westerners, 380. Boasting a fiery offense and seeking revenge for last year's loss the Mghty Mtadors put up a blistering defense and jumped in the conference lead, beating the Coronado Mustangs 28-10. The contest with the Mxilerey Plainsmen marked Estacado’s Homeooming, and EHS fans cheered as Big Blue went into a victorious defeat of their cross-town rivals. Although the Great Matador Machine trampled the Dumas Demons 340, and went into a three-way tie for 2nd place in the conference, and they succeeded in defeating Canyon and tying Dunbar, the defeat at Borger cost the Mtadors a shot at the conference championship. Coach Louis Kelley stated that while he was a little disappointed over the final outcome, he felt that the team had played well this season. (From Row) K. Johnson-21. R. Willis-20. D. Whilc-12.
