Hit 'em hard, hit 'em low, and hit 'em fast. Paschalites employ the basics in tackling. he Sedson Ends With Consecutive Wins Numbed by bitter winds, frozen specta- tors witnessed a fiery offensive explosion in the final moments as Paschal crushed Western Hills' aspirations for victory. A fourth quarter deadlock was broken by a 19-yard field goal by Billy Weimer, which lifted the panthers to an exciting 16-13 vic- tory. On their initial possession the Cougars drew first blood with a 47-yard touchdown run and led 7-O. Fiegrouping, Paschal relied on Billy Weimer's speed, as his 50-yard scamper to the end zone knotted the score 7-7. Soon after, the Panthers capitalized on a Western Hill's fumble and the staunch running ability of Dudley Woodard to score and take the lead 13-7 at half. The third quarter remained scoreless and ended with the Cougars threatening deep in Panther territory. On the first play of the fourth quar- ter Western Hills tied the contest with a 7- yard scoring strike. Possibly the biggest play of the game occurred on the next play, as George Gorham blocked the PAT attempt to keep the game undecided. With time run- ning out Billy Weimer broke loose and set Cougars exit here! Richard Fiamfield ushers out of bounds an unruly Cougar as Dale Hallan C373 and Darryl Kelley C703 rush to assist. f - q 1 .. .. : . +R Gm.. - the stage for his game-winning field goal. Ending the 1977 football season in style, the powerful purple machine overwhelmed the hapless Poly Parrots 34-O to place sec- ond in the race for district crown. Seniors Billy Weimer, Dudley Woodard, and Jody Norman paced Paschal offensively, as the Panthers scored in each quarter. Equally impressive were the PHS defenders as they effectively contained the Parrot offense and recovered three of its fumbles. Paschal received the game's opening kick-off and put together a string of first downs as the team marched 68 yards to a score using the first seven minutes of play. Moments later the defense halted a Poly bid on fourth down and gained possession of the ball. Five plays later Dudley Woodard scored his second of the contest and Paschal led 14-O at halftime. In the third quarter, the Pan- thers continued their devastation of Poly on the ground as Woodard raced 53 yards to the end zone. Midway in the final period Jody Norman added yet another TD on a 5- yard dash to the goal line. Through superb defensive play the Parrots never seriously threatened in the entire game. Dudley Woo- i .M , 5 f dard put the final points on the board with 1 just under three minutes remaining, with his fourth touchdown of the evening. f Billy Weimer punts with all-star form. While hard-hitting Panthers make an adept tackle, the baffled Western Hills offense wanders aimlessly around the playing turf. 107

These uni- que teachers often sacrifice hours after school and on weekends to give their teams the attention they require. These men and women deserve much of the credit for Pas- chal's renowned athletic ability and sports- manship. l Phil Hall James Brewer e ,A r ' JN Weldon Lotspeich Jimmy Crowder
