The 1987 football season was a very special time for the dedicated fans who have followed the Eagles throughout the years. The season marked the 25th anni- versary of Northside. The Northside High School football sea- son started off with tough battles but fin- ished with unforgettable victories. The Ea- gles first two games with Tift Co. and Morrow were the toughest games the Ea- gles would face the entire season. Unfortu- nately, both games were losses. The Ea- gles went on to have a successful season. The third game was against inter-county rival, the Perry Panthers. The Eagles didn't have any trouble racing over the Panthers for an easy victory. The next game was an easy victory. The next game was away, when the Eagles traveled to Macon to col- lide with the Northeast Raiders, who took and early lead, but could not withstand the Eagles force. The Eagles who played the Baldwin Braves were considered the underdogs. The Northside Eagles would prove this un- true as they rolled into an easy victory against the Braves. The challenge of the season came when the mighty Eagles bat- tled the Southwest Patriots. The Patriots were 5-0 going into the game, but the Ea- gles would soon change this. Only giving up 3 points, the Eagles were able to cap- ture an overwhelming 36-3 victory against the Patriots. In the next regular season game, the Eagles had an upset and defeat. When playing the Central Chargers, the Eagles, unable to prevail, lost the game by | point. Always being a special time of the year, the Hephzibah game marked the 25th Homecoming game for the Eagles. The Ea- gles put on a great show as they rolled into victory against the Hephzibah Rebels. The Eagles traveled to Augusta to take on probably their toughest opponents of the year, the Evans Knights. The Knights who had a flawless season, would really be a test of ability for the Eagles. The North- side Eagles could not overcome the Knights who won by a point. mes Lending a hand, Ira Hudgens, 86, trys to “cool down” quar terback Mark Ivory, 11 Pat Crawford, 48, takes a break from the action as he chills” on the side lines - Getting into position, Terrence Dodson, 89, prepares for the kick
