Running for Victory Coach Larry Goin's Leola Pirates finished the 1976 foot- ball season with a record of 4-4-1 and a third place finish in the Northern Conference. The Pirates showed much potential in their first game as they downed the Ellendale Cardinals. The victory was followed the next week, though, by a disappointing loss to Britton. Leola then bounced back to trounce the Eureka Trojans and played the North-western Wildcats to a hard-fought 20-20 tie. Next came the Homecoming game, where the Ipswich Tigers ruined the Pirates' night, beating the home team. Two more losses to Northwestern and Ipswich followed, as victory continued to elude the Pirates. The season was finished very impressively, though, as the Pirates did not allow a point in the last seven quarters in victories over Eureka and the Aberdeen Juniors. 1977 Football Team: Coach Larry Goins, Jerome Geffre, Miles Blumhardt, Greg Taylor, JeffWaltman, Jody Hoffman, Brian Nesby, TomKappes, Bryant Arioso, Earl Weiseburger, Tim Rath, Joe Leible, ABOVE: Ron Kappes receives a pass and runs for a touchdown against Eureka.
