JV squad ends season 5-3-1 The reserve football team ended its winning season with a 5-3-1 record. This year ' s reserve football team turned out to be a very pleasant surprise, stated Coach Denny Feagler. Junior Varsity players finished the season with three consecutive shutouts against New Haven, Woodlan and Angola. The team also won its first game of the season in a close game against East Noble. Players had to make many sacrifices during the season. Squad members had no practice field and no home field. This meant traveling to Auburn to practice every day. Many players had to play out of their positions during the games but, They never complained, said Coach Feagler. Despite the winning record. Coach Feagler considered the improvement each player made as the most important aspect of this year ' s team. The winning record is nice, but each player had to work hard to improve his skills to achieve this winning record, said Coach Feagler.
