 football - 960 The Varsity football team of Paxton High School completed the 1960 season with a record of four wins, three losses, and one tie. The team placed third in Wauseca play. The annual football banquet was held November 7, 1960 at the Middlecoff Inn. After the dinner, Fred Young, sports writer emeritus of the Bloomington Pantagraph addressed the football squad, coaches, and dads of the players on the subjects of physical and moral courage, consistency, and persistency. Special awards were presented to Dick Marshall, “Most Valuable Player,” Larry Smith, “Best Tackier,” and Dave Erickson, both, “Most Improved Player,” and, “Best Blocker.” Coach Zuchowski then introduced the co-captains for the 1961 season, elected by the squad, Larry Smith and Pete Larson. Then the senior members of the 1960 Mustang team presented Coach Zuchowski with a special trophy naming him the “Coach of the Year.” The program was ended with the presentation of varsity letters to the following boys: SENIORS Roger Bixby Charles Cardwell Bill Chilton Dave Erickson John Hanson Dick Marshall Gary McCullough Don Muller Warren Rollins Mickey Strayer Bill Vaught JUNIORS Don Atkins Dave Berg Bill Campbell Tom Foster Wesley Foster Phil Hudachek Pete Larson Dan Phillips Charles Richards Allan Rydell Larry Smith Ed Zumwalt SOPHOMORES Terry Adkins Terry Reland Gary Kinney At the Wauseca Conference Meeting, Dick Marshall was named to the All Conference team as quarterback.

The talent on this squad was better than their record showed, and the next few years we hope will show this. 27
