Opponent The Freshman Purple team played their first game against Aldine, after downpour of rain. Henry Kellum played an out- standing game. Next, the Falcons played one of their better games while defeating Spring 20-12. Bob Harvey and Henry Kellum had big gains on offense, while Darryl Ford, Rod Warmke, and Greg Tate led the defense. The Huntsville game was filled with penalties and mistakes. The Falcons had two touchdowns called back because of penalties, but went on to win the game anyway, 6-O on a Bob Harvey touchdown. The game against Spring Woods was a very disappointing one. The team defeated Spring Woods in everything, but the score. Once again penalties and mistakes plagued the Falcons. The Falcons scored on a Bob Harvey to Rod Warmke pass. They tried for two and did not make it, losing the game 7-61. Playing Elsik was probably one of the best games the team played. This was the only game that we made NO mistakes. 1976 PURPLE FRESHMAN SEASON RECORD Aldine Huntsville Spring Woods E si McCullough Spring Branch Spring Bryan Conroe Cy-Fair JVHS 12 13 29 7 12 20 30 7 54 8 0 22 The victory over McCullough was a satisfying win, besides the Cy Fair game The team was behind but came back to win the game Henry Kellum was again outstand- ing for 163 yards and scoring both touchdowns.
