7th 8th lose only one From a frustrating 1 and 5 mark last year to an almost perfect 5 and 1 record is what the 7th and 8th grade accomplished this season. They started off with an 18-8 loss to Justice in their first home game ever on the Jones field. But they came back to win the rest of their games. A new field, having their own practice field, and a lot of team effort made the 7th and 8th grade season a success. Against McCulloch in the last game of the season, the 7th and 8th grade shut out McCulloch 16-0, putting them in a tie with Justice for the city championship. Phil Foreman caught a 40-yard touchdown pass from Craig Stace. John Flanigan ran for the extra point. Rocky Adrianson ran 40 yards for the other touchdown. The defense scored the other two points on a safety. Even though Jones lost to Justice in the first game they came back later in the season to whip Justice 20-8. John Flanigan, Richard Mathias, and Craig Stace all scored touchdowns. Being able to have our own practice field helped because it gave us enough room to run end sweeps and passes, said Coach Daniel. Coming to a new school, the starting of a new team, the 7th and 8th grade ended with a 5 and 1 mark, a big turn around from last year ' s team which had a 1 and 5 record. Rex Kinch runs the ball for a good gain enroute to Jones one and only loss to Justice in their first home game ever. Mike Mooney tackles a Justice runner as Richard Mathias (left) and Rocky Adrianson (right) help out.
