Led by the defense, they shut out Harrison and Mitchell. Following a loss to Hay Springs, the Cats won a thriller at Rushville in the last few seconds of the game. On homecoming the Bobcats won an exciting game over Minatare with another last second effort by the defense in a 4-play goal line stand which triggered much confusion and provided one of the most emotion-packed games of the season. Losing two starters very early in the game gave St. Agnes what they needed to down the Bobcats easily. HHS finished off the season with relative ease winning over Crawford and Morrill and picked up another last minute win over Hyannis. The Bobcats placed three on the All-Conference team: Dan Llit- eras as quarterback and kicker; Dave Roes, lineman; and Grant Campbell, linebacker. The Cats had many honorable mentions.
