The challenge was met head on by a determined group of young men, and at the end of the season the Redmen had extended their winning streak to 25 games, were Coulee Conference Champions and were again number one in the Little Ten. The Redmen featured a balanced offensive attack with Orie Elstad, Mike Baer, and Bob Oines sharing the ball carrying duties. Paul Sacia led a potent passing game, throwing to such capable receivers as Orie Elstad, Mike Baer, Bob Oines, Tim Twesme and John Byom. The outstanding offensive play of the 1970 Redmen was made possible by a very dedicated, con- stantly improving group of linemen.

Mike Baer, Les Mickelson, Orie Elstad and Bob Oines provided the Redmen with an outstanding pass defense.
