Lions End '76 Campaign On Bitter Note The Lions traveled to Gonzales, Louisiana to play the East Ascension Spartans in the Regional finals. Playing on a muddy field, the Lions drove deep into Spartan territory early in the game. Turnovers suddenly plagued the Lions and all scoring threats ended. ln a defensive battle, East Ascension took advantage of Ouachita's errors and carried a O-7 halftime lead into the locker room. Ouachita's offense sputtered in the second half. The Spartans scored again after blocking a Lion punt and moved to a O-13 third quarter lead. The Lions' only score of the night came with five minutes remaining in the game when Rusty Lucas hit Gerald Swihart on a 10 yard pass. The Lions had time to score again, but a Spartan interception killed all Lion hopes. The game ended 6-13. The loss ended the Lions' season with an 8-4 record. But losing the game was only part of the agony. The Spartan football field had been lined off in lime and over twenty Ouachita players received burns during the contest. Vinegar was poured on players in the course of the game to neutralize the lime and ease the pain. Burned players were treated in a local hospital before the trip home. The 1976 season began and ended on disheartening notes for the Lions. But the pride and inability to lie down and die carried Ouachita through one of its greatest years ever.
