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.

Each one demonstrated his devotion and sportsmanship both on the playing field and in everyday life. To their fellow players, as well as to the entire community, these men of Troy revealed that Northwest athletes are more than just athletic.
