JV's End On Good Note by: Lamonte Love Although thejunior varsity posted a 5-5 over-all record, they ended the season on a good note by beating Antioch, 31 -26. The season began with a bang as they had a very impressive showing at the season opening scrimmage in Sacramento against 3 teams. But, there were many surprises as league play approached. Even though the JV's started the season on a high note, the opening of the league was a different tone, as they recorded their first loss in the last 3 years. lt was a heart breaking loss for the team because they played hard enough to win, Coach Herc Pardi remarked. This year's team displayed not only talent but also they showed hard work and enthusiasm that stayed all through the year. They always gave a 100W:.H One of the bright spots was the defense led by Robert Hosmer, Craig Pineda and Joe Caspers who were the heart of the defense. Hosmer and Pineda accounted for 127 tackles with Hosmer having 43 unassisted and 128 assisted. Pineda had 43 unassisted and QQ assisted. DVAL's 41 offense was led by running back, James Gardner who led the team in rushing with 809 yards on 193 carries and 10 touchdowns. The offense also possessed the best passing combination in the DVAL with Jim Jacobsen and Charles Guy, who had Q4 catches for 498 yards and 5 touchdowns. 1. J.V.

Frosh Have Troubled Season by: Jeff Keats The freshmen football team finished Q-5-1 on the season. Though their record does not show it, the Pitt freshmen had a lot of talent. They lead the DVAL with the 111 offense in the league. Their offense was producing the points, but their defense was not keeping other teams out of the end zone. Most of their 5 losses were lost by one touchdown or less. We were never really beaten by other teams, said Chad Wehrmeister, We usually beat ourselves on big mistakes. Pitt's offensive success was due to a strong front line, and the running of their four backs. They were Aaron Turner, Marcus Muldrow, Pat Calderon, and Edward Castillo. Coach John Abono commented, We walked away from a lot of losses thinking we should have won. is - if. 'sf Z ti 1. Marcus Muldrow and Tony Dargon get down in 3 pt. stances.
