Mr. Clifford Rimer is the man who works extremely hard to make sure the Trojan varsity gridders have plenty of man- power on the way. Coach Rimer has been highly successful in his three years as J .V. football coach. He knows his business very well, and knows his boys even better. With a man of this caliber at the junior varsity helm, Northwest is sure to expand and improve in football. Leading the way in J .V. Basketball are Miss Edith Smith and Mr. Bob Angley. Miss Smith does an excellent job in preparing the Junior Ladies of Troy for future basketball endeavors. She knows they have quite a heritage to uphold. Coach Angley, in his second year as boys' J.V. coach, is remarkable to say the least. His ability both to instruct and to inspire insures Northwest of fine basketball players in the future years. The '69 Dynamis salutes all of Northwest's coaches for their ability, inspiration, and extremely hard work. We are proud to have such fine athletic leaders. 205 Mr. Candle studies plays for the coming basketball game. Mr. Edwards instructs his girls basketball team in a win over Mt. Pleasant.

nydn QFIJOQKS K f Of CKEAZSITJQ zbfozies The 1968-69 Trojan Football Team started the season WIIH a new coach and a new hope for a successful campaign. Mr. Jim Lovett started workouts early in August and as muscles developed, so did pride and desire. From the very start it was obvious that this was going to be a fighting, spirited group of Trojan gridders. On August 30, the Little Wonders from A. L. Brown came to Trojanland. They proved to be a little too strong for the inexperienced Trojans, as they left with the opening victory. The next four weeks the Trojans met West Stanly, Mt. Pleasant, South Stanly, and Monroe.Several times they missed victory because of a freak play or a few seemingly impossible yards. A perfect example was Mt. Pleasant where the Trojans outplayed and outhustled the Tigers, but lost on a 79 yard run. The Tigers only invaded Northwest territory for two downs with the exception of that one play. Then it happened. Happy days had come again. Northwest walloped Piedmont by a score of 34 to 21. Next came cross county rival Central Cabarrus. It turned out to be a nightmarish evening as the Vikings rolled up an impressive victory. Northwest dropped games to Sun Valley and powerful Concord before finishing up at Forest Hills. Hope for a season-ending victory rose on the Northwest campusg however, Lady Luck just would not smile on the scrapping Trojans. Forest Hills won the game, giving Northwest a season record of 1-9.
