Gerard's Defense Shows its Strength Special Recognition to those members of the AA Central All- Tight Ends: Tackles: Guards: Centers: Wide Receivers: Running Backs: Kickers: Tackle: Quarterback: Division Football Team OFFENSE FIRST TEAM Jeff Gourley Rich Murphy SECOND TEAM Don Safcik Chris Kapilovic Dave Vaughn Adrian Garson Ed Fylling HONORABLE MENTION Pete Thompson Rob Bowen This years Varsity football team consisted of a group of spirited and dedicated individuals. As there was no unior-Varsity team this year, the team members ranged in age from Sophomores to Seniors. The Redcoats nad a very tough season, but they never lost that Redcoat Pride. A large number of the players are graduating eniors, which means the team next year will be young. But with the experience that the younger members ac- uired this year, along with their strong Redcoat spirit, we can look forward to next year's team with hope and ride. Mr. J. Relph, who coached Varsity Football from l97O-l 974 with a record 32 wins and 7 losses, became the ew head coach this year. When asked how he felt about the team this year he replied: ul would like to say three things. One, we really had very good personnel. Two, four of the five teams that we ost to went into the state playoffs, and three, in the clutch situations we lacked confidence and panicked. Mr. Relph hopes to take the team up North for a week this summer to practice and gain more team unity. est of luck next year Mr. Relph and fellow Redcoats. 4192 liebackers: k C SI e. ebacker: cks: ALL CONFERENCE DEFENSE FIRST TEAM Don Safcik Scott Schmitt Bill Kuamoo Dave Vaughn One in family, one in prayer.
