WAYNE GANTT Sophomore Center This game proved to be very disheartening for the Cavaliers. lt was the Cavs last chance for a bowl bid and brought this Cavalier season to an end on a sad note.

The Cavs made a record for themselves in this game. They were the first team to beat South Pittsburg and the first to cross the goal line more than once in that season. Watson Brown charged across the goal line for the Cavs first TD. Kevin Tucker placed the football between the goal posts giving the Cavs a 7-0 lead. James Clinton's TD gave the Cavs a good margin over South Pittsburg. The extra point was good and this put the Cavs ahead 14-6. -' ,'f 'Tf, I -I K. W Y .1 BOBBY WINNINGHAM Sophomore Guard I I7

This is evidenced in the fact that the Cavs finished with a 6-2-1 record. This is the best record that the Cavaliers have had in many years. Several of our boys were honored with football awards. Larry Morgan made All- Midstate, Kevin Tucker made second string All-Midstate, and Watson Brown made third string All-Midstate. Chuck Hershiser, Jack Stites, and James Clinton made honorable mention in All-Midstate. Jack Stites also made TSSAA East State All Stars. The year was disappointing because our first homecoming game was can- celled and our chances at a bowl bid fell one game short. We are very proud of our team for their record this year. lj U
