Malden Catholic High School - Lance / Hi Way Yearbook (Malden, MA)

Page 27 text:

Although their record might not show it, the Lancers were one of the most exciting teams Malden Catholic has seen in a long time. They worked hard and as a re¬ sult, there wasn’t a game that they weren ' t in all the way. The opening game was a prime example of their strong defense. The Lancers held powerhouse Marion to 8 points in breaking their 22 game losing streak with an 8-8 tie. In the next game they rolled to a 26-6 victory over Cathedral. Much credit must be given to the coach¬ ing staff, and Mr. Ransom in particular for making the team as exciting as it was. On numerous occasions the Lancers gambled on fourth and long yardage situations, and more often than not the gambles paid off. If the freshman and Junior Varsity squads are any indication of what is to come, the M.C. Lancers will be an exciting team to watch for years to come.
