Parker Leading the way, is fullback Cliff Tysor giving the key block that springs another long run for tailback Pod Cousin. Scoring another touchdown, flanker Billy Had- ley shows the form that made him the leading pass receiver for the Ped Devils. The 1982 season consisted of many ups and downs. When the team was up, such as in the game against Eastern Flan- dolph, they surprised everyone by beat- ing the favored Wildcats by the score of 21-20. Homecoming day arrived without the customary rain, and the team thrashed Bartlett-Yancey 31-6. Some downs came when the Devils lost to East- ern Alamance, Orange, and Western. Even though these downs affected them, Rod Cousin and the offense would always get the team rolling. All through the season, Bod consistent- ly gained big yardage. During the course of this season, he frequently reached one hundred yards rushing, and on three oc- casions he attained the two hundred yard mark. He was the first rusher since A.J. Trollinger to reach one thousand yards in a ,single season. Much of the credit for Rods success must go to the offensive line for leading the way for him. They were a big reason the coaches picked Rod as the Mid-State Offensive Player of the Year. In addition, Rod also made All Confer- ence, along with senior teammates Mike Thompson, Flodney Pickard, and Cliff Ty- sor.
