Varsity Football 1981 Once again, as football practice began, the football players were greeted by the sun’s hot weather, long hours, and hard work. Practice started at 4 p.m. and ended at 9 p.m. during the two weeks before the start of the 1980-1981 school year. For the next several weeks practice was really tough, but the players were determined to do their very best. At the beginning of the school year no one was sure what kind of season the Rockbridge Rebels would have, especially the players and coaches. But one thing they were sure of was hard work and team effort. The coaches for the 1980-1981 season were Gary Cuccio — head coach, Victor Spotts, Ron Loy, and David Wade. They did an excellent job as coaches and gave the team a lot of experience in football. The team had something new this year. Along with Mike Bowen as one of the football managers, the team had two girls as football managers. They were Lisa Breedlove and Tammy Sensabaugh. All three did an excellent job for the 1980-1981 football team. Even though the Rebels had only 2 wins and 8 loses, they never once gave up and always had team spirit. No one is sure what kind of season the Rockbridge Rebels will have in future years, but by working together and always having pride in what they are doing, the Rebels will once again be on top.
