Handicapped by lack of experi- 1 ence, the Green Dragons of Coach Andrew Sember were able to win only two games during the 1951 season. The Green and White, 1 950 The 1950 Lewisburg High School football team came through the season with a record of four wins and five losses. Seven of the. nine games, Selinsgrove and Bellefonte being the two exceptions, were close, hard fought encounters which could have gone either way. Probably the highlight of the campaign was the 7-6 upset of the highly regarded Milton Panthers. The following game was a heart-breaking 19-13 defeat at the hands of Northumberland. After this game the Dragons suffered heavily from injuries to key players for the remainder of the season. After the final game coach Andy Sember said farewell to seniors Troutman, Mathews, Jurst, Berger, Flick, Libby, Hoffman, L. Sauers, V. Sauers, Deans, Bowersox and Johnson. however, had no reason to feel ashamed of their performance, for several games on their nine-game schedule could easily have gone the other way. Lewisburg dropped closely-con- tested decisions to Trevorton, Bellefonte, Watsontown, and Sel- insgrove. Probably the most excit- ing game of the season was the Bellefonte game. Entering the fray as underdogs by four touchdowns, the Green and White gave their opponents a real battle before losing by one point.
