anslt ootlsall Frustration is a one word summation of the 1973 Titan Football Campaign. This frustration was due to the injury of 6 starters in the first 4 games, and to the inexperience of not only the players, but of the coach as well. Coach Barry Meier started his first year as a high school head coach. But there were a few bright spots. Turning spectacular seasons, were seniors Kip Poutre, All Arrowhead defensive player of the year, and team M.V.P. Derek Polk, the All League halfback who set a new team rushing record of 933 yards, Robbie Meier, All League team lineman of the year, Vince Costa, Honorable Mention, offensive and defensive tackle, and Cary Voll, All League starting offensive guard. The other returning senior lettermen, Pat Gorman, and Lou Magana, also had a good year. Other Seniors on the team were DB's Tom Rizzo, Frank Mankin, WR's Brian Gay, Pat Daniels, Kicker Louie Magana, Linemen Jake De Ruyter and Mickey Suinga. There is good speculation for next year with 22 returning lettermen and a year's experience for Coach Meier.

No victory in the Games can be gained without the moral qualities of self-control and self-discipline . . . Honor is due not only to the victors but also to the defeated, if in the true spirit of sportsmanship they give at once ungrudging and generous praise to those who have surpassed them in skill and endurance. For, by so doing, though beaten in the contest, they show mastery over themselves . . . with the flame of goodwill burning in their hearts, and continuing to burn there long after the Olympic Flame has been extinguished. .
