oe. The Bobcat managers, Edwin Ainsworth, Denny Caraway, Neil Lyon, Homecoming Leaves Cats Undefeated were a great asset to the successful season. Q , , f xi wwwi- , .M f f Z' . vggibsigl z is J i iv .l ,Ma and Donnie Hutchinson Fever, cont. Bobcats Celebrate Homecoming 26-0 The nationally third ranked Jones County Jun- ior College Bobcats easily won their eighth game of the season against winless Northeast College 26-O. Jones was led by speedy sophomore tailback Junior Wallace who had a usual game gaining 153 yards and scoring three touchdowns. The Bobcat defense never allowed the Tigers a chance to score. We were not as sharp as we should have been. We sputtered some on offense, said Sim Cooley after the game, on his team's homecom- ing performance. lt took the Bobcats until 2:55 left in the first period to score when Wallace jolted into the end zone from four yards out. Lou Barry's PAT gave the Cats a 7-O advantage. Northeast found their way into Bobcat territory twice in the second quarter and fumbled twice. Michael Chinn recovered the second fumble that set up the second Jones score. The Bobcats marched from their 48 to the Tigers' 6 on runs by Wallace, Westmoreland, Chris Ford, and Tony Ainsworth to set up Wal- lace's six yard touchdown run through the middle of the Tiger line. Lou Barry's PAT gave the Bob- cats a comfortable 14-0 lead at halftime. Jones came out after halftime homecoming ceremonies and proceeded to pick up where they left off in the first half, driving 79 yards in 12 plays. Matt Mayatt hit pay dirt on a 17 yard run on a flanker reverse that completely fooled the Tiger defense. Late in the final period Junior Wallace found his way into the end zone from the one capping a 75 yard scoring drive. The Bobcats gained 326 yards and only allowed 183 yards against them. Bobcats Clinch South State Title in Hinds Game The Jones' Bobcats placed a bid in the state playoff clinching the South State title for the sec- ond straight year against the Hinds Junior Col- lege Eagles 42-O. The Jones' offensive unit compiled a total 399 yards and six touchdowns and the Homicide Squad CJones' defensej achieved their fourth shut-out of the season in allowing the Eagles to gain only 163 yards.

Fever, cont Bobcats Vs Hinds, cont The Bobcats started off shaky fumbling twice and allowing Hinds to penetrate their deepest from the two after the second Jones fumble. After the Eagles marched 28 yards to the 2 the Jones defense took a bold stand stopping Hinds marched 98 yards to score the initial touchdown on runs by Wallace and Westmoreland and pass receptions by Robin Pitts and Matt Mayatt. From the six Westmoreland powered up the middle to hit pay dirt. Wallace on a one-yard iaunt scored to give the Bobcats a convincing 13-0 halftime lead late in the half. After the bands left the field the Bob- cats continued to make mincemeat of the Eagles as they extended their lead to 20 with over eleven minutes left in the third period. Jeff Hopkins recovered a Hinds fumble on the Hinds 43 to set up the score. A 25 yard gain on a fake punt advanced the ball to the five from where Carlon Robertson went in for the TD. Lou Barry s PAT was good to put the Eagles deeper in the hole. A high snap over Hinds quarterback Steve Barr resulted in a safety to give JC more points. With 2:29 left in the third quarter Junior Wal- lace was unleashed again rating 26 yards for another Bobcat touchdown. Lou Barry s PAT boosted the score to 30-O. Hinds continued to make mistakes and the Bobcats continued to take advantage of those mistakes. The Eagles fumbled deep in their own territory to put the Cats in good field position. Tony Ainsworth scampered 16 yards for the Bob- cats fifth touchdown of the afternoon. The Bobcats ranked fifth nationally sustained one more long drive late in the game from the 37. A 23 yard pass from Chris Ford to Earl Reynolds and runs by Scott Carter and Jerry Moody brought the ball to the one where Joe Westmore- land scored his second TD of the game to end Jones scoring spree.
