4' Seventeen made the team Seventeen boys practicing three days a week at Memorial Park and at country clubs on weekends made up the Boys Golf Team. The team participated in ten tournaments during the season, plus the district tournament at El Dorado and Inwood Country Clubs. We finished sixth in district out of 15 teams. The majority of the tournaments had about 40 teams. We never finished lower than sixth or higher than fifteenthg we were always mediocre , said Coach john Williams. Heading the team along with Williams were two captains, jack Stud Clemmensen and jim McClendon, both returning seniors. Clemmensen and McClendon were both voted the most outstanding golfers on the team. They were alwasy just a stroke apart from each other all year, said Williams. Next year's number one will have to play good all the time to stay at number one because there will be a lot of seniors trying for it next year, said Clemmensen. Freshmen on the team were Charles Bradshaw, Mike Hoover, Steve Thomas and john Hansen. Sophomores were joe Brown, Lee johnson, and Keith Ormston. juniors were Mike McGuire, Dale Morrison, Greg Pipkin, Young Skin, Dan Waldrop, Tom Webber, and jim Pappas and the senior members were McClendon and .r S 14 31 4 gr g of things Cjgmmgngenr With his right arm straight junior Tim West pre- lUf1f0f TOITF VVebefgeISiHf0fhGSW1f1 pares to hit the ball. rr., ,. 5 ,r., t. .... , .,,.. ,gi f qwirr 'ff' .1-rf K - - : .,! , , . . ,, ri- ',L if' ' ' .r may W-cj.: '- ,ivc,:yfz:m4,-Mrfvgv ' Vg, , -1 ,s-f-:Z,r:,3i?V V s.

Sophornores Laurie O'Donnell and Angela Calleri discuss the football players. Injuries went all the way from broken arms to brain contusions to sprained toes. The coaches were in charge of the players and positions they had coached all year. lt happened May 17 at 7:30 in Tully stadium. The matter at hand was the Red White game. Ending in a 14-14 tie, Head football Coach Les Koenning felt it was a good game, one where the players showed a lot of enthusiasm and willingness to work. As far as getting out there just to hit heads and score touchdowns, the game turned out more quality play and the boys had a good chance to be real competitive, said Koenning. He felt the Red Team was a better defensive team and the White Team showed more ability on offense. junior Tom Silva looked promising for the White Team by carrying the ball 15 times for 152 yards to be the outstanding ground gainer. For the Red, Doug Kuni ran 78 yards carrying the ball 13 times. Koenning felt good about spring training and the Red! White game. We achieved many of the things we set out to do and evaluated the players' athletic ability and capabilities. Before the Mustangs develop a winning team, Coach Koenning realizes they must be mentally tough. REDXWHITE GAME 137
