The most memorable games were played against Central and South Gwinnett in which every one performed at their best. But for the whole season, Rick Cheek, quarterback, and Mark Watkins, defensive back, were quoted as the most valuable players. Of- fensively, Ben Broome, Perry Keiffer, Jay Roesch, and Jeff Crumely deserve much praise for their fine job. Defensively, Greg Nabors and Tony Vaccaro are celebrated for their ac- complishments.

The 1982-83 Baby Blues did an outstanding job, under Coach Ranus' fine directions. Roger Rivas and Thad Barnes, who received the defensive player of the year award, did outstanding jobs as linebackers. Matt Ward and Lee McCullem both had a fine year, also. Offensively, Matt Miller was voted the most valuable player and received the of- fensive player of the year award. Ron Shelton played fullback extremely well and Steven Daniels did an excellent job as the quarterback. The overall team had a very successful season and hopes to do as well next year as the B-team members. ATLANTA FALCONS - The Falcons visited NHS during the National Football League strike in the 1982-83 season. Their visit allowed the Blue Devil students to meet the pros and see -z.sm.i V191 4A them in practice. lt also brought local and national coverage to NHS. We were happy to have hosted the Atlanta Falcons and wish them good fortunes. Hopefully, some of our football players will become pros one day, too. media 43
