Q ' ' if Key to Success .., I I PRI DE it ' .ee While ready physically, many foot- ball teams lacked one important criteria needed to win. An immense and honest PRIDE for their team and their school. The Knights going into the play- offs with a mediocre 5 and 4 record faced two teams in two weeks. First the heavily favored Lincoln Patriots. The Knights proceeded to mow down the Pats with a resounding 26-8 vic- tory. Pride propelled them onward. After the Lincoln game the Knights faced 112 in the state the Brookings Bobcats. Again the challenge would be met with the Knights taming the Bobcats 28-21. History would repeat itself when the Knights faced the Yankton Bucks for the state championship for the third time in four years. The Knights, playing with enough pride to bust their jerseys, fell short of a victory with a narrow 30-22 loss. As was true with all sports a large amount of training would be necessary in creating a team that would go on to state. With constant dedication to their sport, they hoped to develop a quality of pride and determination which would help them remain yards ahead of the others, while becoming champions. Pride a quality that makes cham- pions, and every member of the foot- ball team played as champions. No one can take that away from them.
