OFFENSE Per-game average: 22. 5 points. Members of the high-scoring of- fensive team are, left to right, linemen Mike Young, Rory Ken- ward, Calvin Cloer, Wayne Bretches, John Bishop, Don Sex- ton, Rick Renz, and backs Gary Cardoza, Fred Cole, Gary Eric- son, Bob Bishop, and Randy Cook. HY I-IEAVWVEIGHI' In this shot taken during practice, Gary Cardoza blocks for fullback Bob Bishop, getting a handoff from quarterback Gary Ericson. Running out a fake is Randy Cook fbehind Bishopj. Six wins - no losses. There were many keys to this year's success, but a rugged defense set the tone that enabled the offensive team to run so many plays. Although the varsity heavyweights were sparked by a great team effort, many individuals played important roles. On defense, linemen Rory Kenward, Don Sexton, and Mike Ruse, and linebackers Mike Tucker, Wayne Bretches, and John Bishop gave strong performances. The offense, using the T formation, was fortunate to have two fine quarterbacks in Gary Ericson and Fred Cole. The rest of the starting backfield included fullback Bob Bishop, and half- backs Gary Cardoza and Ken Tiedemann. Leading a great offensive line was our big end, Rick Renz, whose blocking and pass receiving contributed much to the team. Other fine linemen were Cal Cloer, Hans Sacre, Randy Saad, Jerry Hamilton, and Steve Frowiss. DEFENSE Just six points allowed! That's the defensive record of this smoothly- functioning eleven. On the line, from left to right, are John San- trizos, Dean Wright, Mike Tucker, Steve Frowiss, Mark Sullivan, linebackers are'Wayne Bretches, Steve Caminiti, Bob Bishopg sec- ondary men are Randy Cook, Fred Cole, Mac Sanborn.
