Juniors triumph in Powderpuff games Homecoming tradition was kept alive once again as the girls played their annual games of Powderpuff Football. Coached by Mr. Bill Bloo- mer's star football players, the girls learned tough defensive tactics and the tricky maneuvers of the Knight wishbone. The first game was played on Wednesday, with the sophomores chal- lenging the iuniors. The powerful iunior team had no problem defeat- ing the sophomores, 22-0. The championship game was held the following day with the unde- feated iuniors against the senior women. At halftime the score was l2 all, and it became apparent that the two teams were closely matched. At the end of regulation time the score was still tied. The game went into overtime, with the Iuniors coming out on top, 18-l2.
