Mike Rhone put Reagan on the scoreboard first with a one-yard run following a 67-yard drive. Fullback Ronnie Caldwell scored next, midway through the second quarter, with a 64-yard run. Caldwell ran for 230 yards during the night. Mike Harris sealed the witi with a 35- yard field goal late in the second quarter. On a rainy October 30, the Raiders played the Crockett Cougars. The Cougars proved to be among Reagan ' s toughest competitors. Reagan led at the half following a Har- ris field goal. In the second half, the two teams scored alternately — Crockett first. This put Crockett ahead 3-7. Afterwards, Rhone scored. Then the Cougars scored with another touchdown and led the game 10-14. With 1:32 remaining in the game, and with Reagan on the Crockett 20-yard line, the Raiders pulled through. Harris threw a touchdown pass to senior Andy Brennan to make the final score 16-14. With seven wins behind them, the Raider squad, consisting of 54 players (four were added late in the season), need- ed one more win to gain Reagan ' s tenth district championship and a berth in the state championship play-offs. Of course, Reagan ' s next opponent, the Travis Rebels, knew this also. The Rebels were hoping to deny Reagan an eighth win. However, the Rebels were not suc- cessful; They lost, 55-22. tm ittMillUJlMi Being chased by a couplt- of NX ildc Jts during ihe bi-district game against Angleton averaged nearly 230 pounds.
