runner-up for third consecutive year This years ' team is young, but still experienced the unity that North High is famous for, commented co- captain Joe Smith. With only seven returning starters Coach Alex Glann put together another winning season. For the third year in a row, the Polar Bears finished second in the Metropolian Conference with a 5-2 record. The season started slow with a non-conference loss to Ankeny, a win over the Rough Ri ders, and another loss to Lincoln. The deter- mined Polar Bears bounced back for a Homecoming victory over Hoover, and then rolled over their next three opponents, setting up a showdown Right: Tim Larson shows his enthusiasm after a touchdown. with Dowling for the Metro cham- pionship and a State Play-off berth. Although the Polar Bears fought their hearts out and lost, they still had a victorious season. The offense was led by the rushing of Kevin Carroll and Ricky Townsell, who combined for fifteen touchdowns. Jeff Weeks and his favorite target, Mike Holland, provid- ed a potent aerial attack which ac- counted for 635 yards and four touchdowns. Defense was the key to much of the Polar Bears ' success. The leading tacklers were Jim Cave, Mark Butts, Mike Ballard, Terry Butts, Mike Sharr, and Tom Clay. Jim Cave, Mike Ballard, Mike Holland, and Gary Lewis were honored by being chosen to the First Team All-Metro unit. Cave was further honored by being selected to Second Tarn All-State. This years ' football program was altered by dropping the sophomore schedule and allowing all players to participate on the varsity team. The J. V. team, consisting of varsi- ty reserves, played a four game schedule. Although they were vic- torious in only one game, a lot of valuable playing experience was gained. 19
