DERP' 'F' , O Football game causes aches and pam for gam The student council revived an event that had not been held in three years, the Powder Puff football game. The sophomorefsenior team, the Cottonheads, competed against the freshmanfjunior team, the Thunderthighs. Each team had one pre-game practice in which to learn offensive and defensive plays. It was a pressure situationj' Jill Beever, junior, said, everything was kind of jammed into one afternoon, the day of the game! Finally the time arrived. The temperature was warm, and the girls were already wet with sweat because of pre-game workouts. At first, the girls were nervous, however, the Cottonheads broke swim, ii.. - through their nerve barrier with Maggie Gonzales and Glenda Briscoe scoring the two winning touchdowns. The Thunderthighs were eager to get their revenge, but the Cottonheads' defense was too tight to penetrate, and they won the game 12-0. Coach Rogers, Coach Smelley, and Coach Jones were referees, and called the game by regular football rules. Just as in regular football, calls were made that were an advantage and a disadvantage to the teams. Many of the calls were caused by irate coaches, Coach O.G. Campbell and Coach Lynn Coumpy. Although the game was flag football, the girls played rough. - -v .-...M . A K Luckily no one was injured, and all survived. The aftermath was not so good. Many of the girls had aches, pains, soreness, and bruises, due to playing 100 percent. Even though someone had to lose, everyone enjoyed the event and showed good sportsmanship. As the official, also known as Coach Rogers, makes the call the players wait very attentively to see what that call will be. 17 ...ri 61 While junior Bridgette Sims goes full speed to try to score, Patti Murdock approaches her to pull the flag.
