tmior Patriots Renew Winning Tradition The work started weeks in advance. The toil, heat, and frustration of the football season began long before school opened. It was hot, it was hard, but it was worth it. Springing back from a rebuilding year in 1975, the junior Patriots had to work diligently to make tl1e season successful. From a won-lost record of 1-6 during the pre- vious year, the Patriots took a complete about face to win six of their seven games in 1976. The Junior Patriots opened their season with a home stand against Canton, and the game ended in victory for the Pats, a good start for the season. From there the team traveled to In- dianola where they suffered their only defeat of the season. The game was well played and hard fought, but the Patriot efforts were of no avail. McCluer, Sam Barthe of New Orleans, Man- hattan, and then Greenwood Pillow fell in suc- cession to the Patriots, and all that remained was a final home game against Brandon. The jr. Pa- triots were ready for their last game when Bran- don forfeited. It was an unexpectedly sudden end to a satisfying season led by Coaches Jerry Mahon and Larry Weems.
