There were just too many key injuries for a first- year team, said Bob Graham. What does the future hold for North football? If our attitude stays good and we hit the weight room, we'll be able to win some games, said Mark Schlicting. So with the first and toughest year behind them, they could start to think about next year. They were a very spirited group and fun to work with. They worked hard through the adver- sity of losing, said Coach Cy Robinson. Anxiety filled the air as 1100 students filed into the gym to await Dr. Johnson and e Attitude the varsity football team's grand entrances. The first-ever North High pep aud kicked off the excitement that began the football season. Despite an off season, with an overall record of 0-9, the team continued to keep their spirits high with a fight-to-the-end attitude. According to Jon Yakish, The key to this season was our attitude. We did a terrific job of keeping it up. One of the more memorable games of the season, offensively, was against Muscatine. North had the lead throughout the whole game, but lost in the last 40 seconds. Defensively, they played well against As- sumption, only allowing them to score one touchdown. v Even with three Blue Devils surround- ing him, Bob Graham makes a great effort to score, Photo: D.
