Successful Season Achieved by Falcons Friends best football record in l6 years was realized by the 35 man squad during the l966 season. They were young, inex- perienced and the smallest numerical squad in theKCAC. During the year the team won five games, lost three and tied one. They held their opponents to ll7 points while they scored 149 them- selves. This proved they were a power to be reckoned with in the Kansas Conference play. Early season mistakes spelled defeat at the hands of Ottawa, 30-U, and Southwestern, 27-21. But the team went on to score a 27-13 upset over Bethel College. This was the start of a four game winning streak. ln the game against McPherson, the Fal- cons scored two quick touchdowns in the opener and then went on to tromp them 26-14. Bethany was held to 27 yards rushing and 92 yards passing. This spelled a 20-7 defeat for them. High- lighting homecoming was an impressive win over Sterling, 23-6. Co-champion College of Emporia managed to edge by Friends l7-l3 on an extra point and a field goal. The contest with Baker University ended in a U-0 standoff in the mud. But the pigskin- ners ended the season triumphantly with a lil-fl win over Kansas Wesleyan - the first time Friends had beaten them ever in con- ference play. 5 , . , Q All-Conference Defensive lineman, joe Potucek, demonstrates a might tackle.
