The 1976 football season was a very trying year. The spectators enjoyed our new covered grand- stands (even though it never rained once during a home football game). The team started out with three exciting victories in a row. After that it was a battle to see who could stay at the top of the Emerald League. But the Warriors didn’t go totally downhill. They came back after losing two to win two more. Unfortunately, the team ended the season with two more losses, making it a 5-4 season.

Football team had a moderately successful season. The team showed glimpses of talent which will prove to be helpful to next year’s Varsity team. Sophomores made up most of the J.V. team, and with a little more experience and practice, they can excel in the future. Coach Holly did a good job coaching the J.V.’s this year but will be coaching freshmen in 1977-78. Game Oakridge Opponent Elmira 14 40 Springfield 00 14 Philomath 22 32 J.
