Powder Bowl II The class of 79 easily rolled over the Freshmen and then fought out a vicious championship game to capture Powder Bowl II, their second consecutive John Adams Powderpuff Championship. The difference was that all the other teams relied on trick plays and we had a solid game plan, said Senior Coach Chris Collier. In the first round the Seniors beat the Freshmen 35-6, while the Juniors eliminated the Sophomores 13-0 to earn their shot at the title. The final game proved that girls really can play football as the two teams had to fight hard for every yard. The seniors took the title 13-6.
