EAU I3 IN Tl-IE f 'Its Q . i',n.4X1 The 1984 football season will be a measuring unit to future Warrior teams for some time. Truly no other season e ualed this one because of the outstanding achievements as a wtlwle team. Everyone awaited restlessly the season to begin, knowing that the previous season was a rebuilding one and t at this team should me one of the finest Coach Ken Colquette had ever produced. The season began with the Warriors pitted against their in- famous rivals the South Pittsburgh Pirates and as always it was a thriller. Both teams dis layed their skills which were backed up by numerous days of hard work but as all sporting events go someone had to win and fortunately it was our Warrior squad kicking off another great season as they beat their rivals 17-10. The nine weeks ahead would prove to be most exciting as the Warriors took nine straight victories, showing mercy to none and the fans loved it. Finally the time came. The Warriors would be attempting to make it to the State Finals for the second time in history. This achievement had been the highest goal for the chosen few who had lived through the strenuous training and now it was time to make dreams become reality. The Warriors took the challenge as the won three playoff games in a row, Howard and Maryville being most exciting, played before capacity crowds, yellin at the top of their lungs. After winning the three games, the onf-ly subject of conversation among people was the State Title. It was true, the Warriors had been given the op ortunity once more. Memories of the 82 season still lingered, in the minds of everyone. We were hungry for the championship. Unfortunately teh Warriors lost again but the story was not the same. After the ame was over the Warriors knew they had battles themselves and when playing yourself you can only lose. the players eventually overcame the agon of defeat and looked to brighter things such as breaking a school record with thirteen victories in a single season and of course, next year. . .! 72 I 1 I 4-' l .S
