The Raid- ers, captained by Larry Miller, Doug Mitchell and Charles Gilbert, moved through their first five game? with prospects of going undefeated and untied un til deadlocked with the Martin Eagles. Coach Schroeder, commenting on the players said. Most of our players are small. We had no truly outstanding players, but we had the best overall team effort of any previous freshman team. Many on the freshman team are good prospects for the varsity next year. The Raiders landed seven boys on the first string all-city team, including Robert Easley, Larry Miller, Tom Johnson and David Brizendine on the offense. On defense, Doug Mitchell, Charles Gilbert and Stuart King occupied positions. Coach Schroeder also remarked that the team worked hard throughout the year and continually improved. The coach called the season a total success. Coach Moberg, who assisted Schroeder this sea- son, was very impressed by the freshman defensive effort. The coach stated that the defense was one of the best. Managers for the team were Randy Teinert, Tommy Prock and Jerry Russell.
