Football The King Of Sports This year the Varsity football team had a good year with seven wins out of nine games. The season started with an excellent win of 26-0 over Millington in a non-league game. The league season began with an- other excellent win over Bad Axe with a score of 56-0. They kept up their reputation, although they lost the Homecoming game to Bassar, 19-18. They went on to finish the season with a win of 27-0 over the Imlay City Spartans on home territory. Few people seem to realize the hard work and training that the players go through to prepare for their games. The team consist- ing of mainly Seniors, had a very strong defense and kept many skilled teams from scoring.
