J.Ys Capture 3 4 Record This year did not hold a winning season for the J.V. ' s. Even though the record was 3-4, the team was still a good one. The j. V. team was strong on running. Harmon, Tolbert, and Wuntke combined were explosive. Helms, whose height was a point in our facor, was at end to help with the passing game. Though with an unimpressive record, the Baby Buffs never stopped trying, even when the odds were not in their favor. Determination is the grea- test factor that a team can have in their favor, and the J.V. ' s had it. A great defensive play stops the Cavaliers short of 1st down. David Wuntke (30) clears the way for Kenneth Tolbert (21). 18 Front Row: A. Hill, R. Hollandsworth, J. Conner, K. Bolt, L. Jones, A. Cuilliams, S. Hale, R. Harmon. Middle Row: A. Huff, J.

Victory Over Cavaliers Lacking experience and skills, the young Buffs made it up in determination. They didn ' t quit, even though they had a discouraging 1-6 record. Coach Harmon, the eighth grade Coach, stated that if the team stays together and works together as it has in the past, that they will eventually be a winning team. Yes, we have something to be proud of in our eighth graders. They didn ' t quit. That ' s the stuff that real foot- ball players are made of. Eighth grade team captains: Frank Murrie and David McLean. Harvey Marshall prepares to stop a Cavalier runningback. Baby Buff scores winning touchdown over Cavaliers. Front Row: J. Yates, Manager.
