5 HA COCK TOP PORT . Football-194 Hancock had one of the greatest teams in the his- tory of the school. As far as we know, this is the first time a football team from Hancock has been unde- feated. We cannot tell really how great the team was because it was never given a true test of what it could do. There is no way of comparing the '48 team with other teams except by records. Hancock won more games this year than any other team in the state. ln ten games the team ran up a score of 478 points or an average of 47.8 points per game. Only three games were completed. One of these games ended up with a score of 70 to 0 for Hancock. Linus Pasch, Eugene Schmidgall, and John Zelt- wanger received mention on all state teams. Basketball As this is written, the season is not over, but our record for the season thus far shows that Hancock doesn't excell only in football. So far we have won ll and lost 2 games. Last year the team had a per game average of Sl points per game in I9 games. That was one of the highest in the state. This year we have a 55 point per game average in the thirteen games played. Track Last year Hancock had its first track team in quite a few years. Our first track meet was the Otter relays at Fergus Falls. The best teams from Minnesota, North Dakota, and South Dakota were competing. Hancock came out of that meet with a first and a second for individual races. John Zeltwanger came in second in the mile, but was given first, because the first place winner was disqualified. George Whaley came in second in the 220 yard dash. ln the district meet John Zeltwanger won first in the mile, and George Whaley took second in the 220 yard dash. We are going ahead with plans for track again this year. --COACH C. J.
