One of the major reasons for the soph- omores 7-win and 3-loss record was an all out team effort. Although the defense and offense was not flashy, it was extremely consistent. Mark Wogan, quarterback, and fullback Bill Woods, led the team in scoring with 8 and 7 touchdowns respectively. The tough defensive front four grudgingly gave up a few yards, while the secondary intercepted many passes.

The Scottsdale Beavers are obliged to give up possession of the Beavers to only one first down the entire game. ln a game of football as they fail to gain sufficient yardage for a first down. The defense both teams were held scoreless as the game ended in a Sabers' defense gave their best effort of the season as they held the deadlock, Saguaro Sabercats -0, Scottsdale Beavers -0. C SAGUARO'S FUTURE Varsity football teams will be greatly benefited by the addition of the new Junior team. The Junior squad is mainly composed of boys with little experience who would most likely be deadwood if packed onto the Varsity. Instead, these boys acquire self-confidence and football knowledge by participating in a game each week. Consequently, during their Varsity year these former Juniors be- come great assets to the Varsity squad because of the experience they gained on the Junior Team. Heads up hustling play was typical of the Sabers defensive unit all season. Bill Christ l75l and Craig Downs l41l alertly recover a fumbled ball. Saguaro outplayed McClintock and vanquished them 17-0. The referee's upraised arms indicate a touchdown as Roger Abdin l20l trots into the end zone scoring on a 30-yd. dash around the right end. Nlicky Simmons l70l later kicked a 35-yd. field goal. Saguaro won 17-0. JUNIOR FOOTBALL - 119
