COASTAL CONFERENCE ALL-STAR The fans got their money ' s worth. The Coastal Conference Football Association and the 5th Quarter Club of Johnson City promised the fans an exciting wide open game and they got more than they bargained for as the South romped to a 43-19 victory in the sixth annual All-Star game. Frankie Walker, Lees-McRae quarterback, who was on loan to the North squad turned in a ster- ling performance and the South ' s Ron Doersam GAME ROUSING SUCCESS of Lees-McRae was voted the most valuable defensive award. Bobcat gridders selected for the All-Star game were: (l-r), Ron Doersam (48), Frankie Walker (11) who played for the North, Wayne Dalton (22), Jeff Bridges (70), Rick Crosby (75), Paul Peniston (16), Neal Musser (56), and Tim Lucus (24).

BOBCATS HAND POTOMAC STATE 24-20 VICTORY Lees-McRae ended their season the way they began — turn- ing the ball over to the opponent. The Bobcats opened against Western Carolina JVs, fumbling eight times and losing seven. Ironically, against Potomac State in their finale, the Bobcats fumbled eight times and lost seven. The Catamounts converted three of the turnovers into touchdowns and, combined with a 49 yard field goal, was all they needed to defeat Lees-McRae 24-20. Lees-McRae ' s Joe Curro scored the first TD on a three yard run and Potomac State answered to make it 7-7. Wayne Dalton put the Bobcats ahead on a 14 yard run but a Potomac State 49 yard field goal made the score 14-10. Potomac State scored again to go up 17-14 and added another TD to make it 24-10. Paul Zdanek scored the final TD on a 48 yard pass from Frankie Walker but it was too little, too late for the Cats who ended their season 2-3 in the Coastal Conference and 5-5 on the year. ' ■•.
