It was getting dark on a Friday night, when the stands began to fill quickly with specta- tors. Around 7:00 PM, the Varsity team en- tered the field to face and defeat Ramona. Lining up in their positions, the players began their quest for victory. Although the first varsity game resulted in a loss, the team made a comeback in the next few games. We are a young team, but we are improving every week. We have a lot of potential, commented Tom Cochran. The teams weak point was youth, while toughness and swiftness were their strong points. Trevin Moore comments, Coach Brohard taught us to never give up on anything no matter what the consequences are. Their abilities and skills were developed during practice, which usually lasted two to three hours per day. ' We have a lot of team spirit and unity. These things make us more of a team, stated Paul Lewis. The Varsity team faced ten opponents this season. New this fall, many junior varsity players played on varsity. The players though reaped benefits from participating in the tough and demanding program. Jim Levers said that his years playing at Rubidoux have given me more self confidence. The team having only three returning start- ers on defense, and three returning on of- fence, still left their opponents a memory of what RHS football was all about, e Si ' ft s. Varsity Football.
