The Grant Union Hi Prospectors completed a very successful football season according to Coach Tommy Johnson, but most of the players thought they should have done better against Echo when they let the district championship slip through their fingers by two first downs. However, they couldn’t have felt too very bad with one loss, two ties, and five wins for a season record. GRANT 0, PRINEVILLE 32 In the opening game at Prineville the Cowboys made short work of Grant, revenging the 13-7 score handed them at fair time last year. It was a one- sided affair most of the way with the Prospectors threatening only once, that being a drive to the Cowboy 35-yard line. A fumble stopped Grant there. The outcome was settled by Prineville, mostly through the air. The Cowboys either set up or scored all their touchdowns through a sustained passing attack. GRANT 19. PRAIRIE CITY 6 It was a tense moment before the kick-off when the favored Panthers from Prairie City met Grant on the fairgrounds field in the clash that Prairie was supposed to win by two touchdowns. But the boys from Grant weren’t of the same opinion. This wasn’t the same team that had played Prineville the week before, this was a hard fighting and poweriul football machine that overcame the odds and went on to win by an impressive score. From a less radical standpoint it was a well played game by both sides, but Grant just held the edge in power.

GRANT 24, CRANE 13 Gifted by some lucky breaks the Prospectors pulled this game out-of-the-bag in the third and fourth periods. Crane proved to be surprisingly tough for Grant, showing strength in both line and backfield. Playing ragged ball in the first half, the Prospectors held on to victory until the gun finally ended the game. This game marked the return to action of veteran fullback, Eddie Wah, who had been out of the line-up since the third day of pra- tice. GRANT 12, POWDER VALLEY 0 Although held down by penalties and baffled by the Powder Valley T-formation in the first half, Grant U. came back strong in the last two periods to throttle Powder Valley High. The Powder grid- sters held Grant at bay throughout the opening stanza, but could not put over a score of their own. However, it was a determined Grant team that came out in the third period and began to show it power. Although there was ho score in that quarter the Prospector offense racked up good yardage, totaling 84 yards from scrimmage to Powder’s 4 yards. GRANT 12, ECHO 12 With the District championship within easy reach for the winner of this contest, rivalry and tension reached a high pitch. Neither Grant nor Echo had suffered any previous defeats from B class competition; although Echo had stacked up the most impressive record. Grant pushed over the first two touchdowns but Echo came back to knot the score at 12-12. According to OHSAA rules the game was won by Echo through totaling nine first downs to Grant’s seven.
