Continued league-leader St. Joseph of Shawnee 7-0 in a tough defen- sive duel. ln their next game the Raiders had to use catch-up tactics to down John Burroughs of St. Louis 19-13. The following weekend they came back again to sweep their third game in a row, outlasting Ft. Osage 20-7. On November 1 the gridders encountered a league foe, St. lVlary's in their homecoming at Pem-Day. The Trojans fell to the Big Red 21-6. Then, playing St. Pius in its final game of the season, the team racked up a victory by the score of 29-7 to end its season with a 4-1 league mark, giving Pem-Day a share of the Prep crown with St. Joe. With all this the Raiders were ranked eight in the state of Missouri in Class AA, tenth in the area by the Kansas City Star, and narrowly missed a berth in the Nlissouri state football playoffs. The Big Red set eight Pem-Day pigskin records in offense, during the 1968 season, many due to the efforts- of junior quarterback Bob Twibell. Junior Chuck Brookfield was named an all-state first tackle, while Bill Chester and Bob Twibell received hon- orable mention at end and back, respectively. Fourteen Raiders were named to one of the three all-Prep Con- ference honorary teams.
