Accepting The Bitter With The Sweet The second half of the season was not as productive as the first half as the eighth-ranked Cavaliers suffered their first loss to 0-5 Northwestern. 24-7. The Cavaliers rushed for just forty-five yards against a fired-up Trojan de- fense. The Cavalier defense, which hdd surrendered an average of only three points per game, now yielded twenty-six points to Northwestern. Coming off their first loss, the Cava- liers had but one week to prepare for their nemesis, the Spartanburg Vikings. The lead seesawed through the first two quarters with the Cavaliers holding a 14-7 halftime lead. The Vikings tied the score 14-14 in the third quarter, but the Cavaliers fought back to take a 21-14 lead. With less than a minute left in regulation time. Viking quarterback Chip Fergu- son lofted a sixty-two-yard pass to Randy Briggs to tie the score at 21-21. In the first overtime, the Vikings scored first, followed quickly by a Goodwin touchdown to knot the score at 28-28. In the second over- time, penalties and mistakes gave the Cavaliers a fourth-and sixteen with no points to show for their efforts. On the Vikings' offensive play, they scored to give them a hard-fought 34-28 double overtime victory. This emotional loss took more than a week from which to recuperate. The Cavaliers lost the next week 21-7 to the Gaffney Indians before rebounding to a 23-14 victory over the Rock Hill Bearcats. Traveling to Byrnes, the Cavaliers fell victim to the Betsill Attack 21-14, end- ing the regular season with a 6-4 re- cord. By virtue of being a Big 16 team, the Cavaliers traveled to Greenwood for the first round of the state play-offs. A much larger Greenwood team hand- ed the Cavaliers a 17-13 defeat and finished the season for the Cavaliers. As the season ended, Coach Clark said, We had a great group of boys. The senior leadership was commend- able. I couldn't have asked for more. Vance Hammond. Don Rogers, and Wayne Moorman made the Herald- Journal All-Area Team. Tackle Ham- mond had sixty-seven individual tack- les and eight quarterback sacks for the season. Tackle Moorman had nine- ty-five individual tackles and eleven quarterback sacks. End Rogers had 117 individudl tackles with sixteen of these tackles coming in one game. Varsity Football 23
