Pisgah’s Future Football Success Is In Their Hands. Anticipating the start of the game, the boys sport sparkling clean uniforms, but they won’t stay that way long! Under the leadership of Mr. Joe Turner our Bear Cubs practiced and played hard this season. They won two of their games, lost two, and tied jne, but they showed much potential as future Black Bears. Being on the Bear Cub, or ’’B” Team, pre¬ pares boys for future positions on the Black Bear Team. Pisgah is proud of these boys and the part they have playec and will continue to play in de- i eloping the sports reputation of our school. t 19
