Carter steps aside as head coach I'm sick at the thought of resigning. I want to continue coaching football, but for the good of the program, I decided it was best to step aside at Mac-Hi. It has nothing to do with winning or losing. These were Coach Brian Carter's words after he annoimced his resignation. His announcement came as a shock to most Mac-Hi football fans. His reasons were personal, but it is rumored that lack of support for the football program by the school's administration was his chief complaint. In just four years, Carter turned a disastrous football program into a strong contender. He brought winning to the Pioneers' program. He led Mac-Hi to the state semi-finals before being eliminated 1973. The team continued its' winning ways in '74, finishing with a 7-2 record, good enough for second in the GOC. Even though Carter was successful in turning the program around, his coaching staff dwindled from eight in 1971 to five in 19 74. The number of football players increased, making it harder on the smaller staff. Carter planned to stay on at Mac-Hi and became head baseball coach. He liked Milton-Freewater and planned to stay here for awhile. Still, football is his first love and he felt that someday he would return to coaching football.

This year's freshman class failed to pro- duce enough manpower to field a freshman team, causing those who were interested to join the sophomore team. The season was one of learning more than one of victories as the team went 0-6 for the season, the first losing season in four years. Coach Ewing didn't attribute the poor sca- son to the lack of numbers. They are great individuals and could have been a winning team if they would have had more opporttmity to practice as a team. Coach Carter doesn't view the losing sea- son as a downward trend in Mac-Hi's fu- ture football program. Contrary to belief, J.V. football is not designed to see who wins the most games, as some schools think. J.V. football is designed to work on fundamentals so the young ath- letes will be ready for the varsity level. Left and above- Defense improved throughout the year, showing promise for the future. 1
