The way is clear . . . the ball carrier is there. Fullback Chris Bohn scarnpers through the tough Cathedral defense as his aggressive blockers, Roland Mabin and John Chikos, clear the way, proving the value of teamwork. fighting Knights rough it Scores do not always tell the whole story, as our ball club demonstrated through the l966 season. Our Knights plunged into the tough Central Division schedule a small, inexperienced team with a massive job ahead of them. They opened the season against a well trained team of veterans, the Brother Rice Warriors. After a rough first half, our club came back, waging a furious battle in the third and fourth quarters. This turned out to be prophetic. During the exhausing schedule the Salesian ll were defeated on the scoreboard at times, but never were they beaten on the gridiron. Every minute of every game our men continued to give their all. This spirit prevailed throughout the season. Our team was by no means unique in its football talents, but as far as attitude towards each game and their performance on the field were concerned, it was exceptional. The Knights met every opponent with the ardent desire to wing they hit every opponent with every ounce of strength they had in an effort to conquer. Thus emerged a group of boys rapidly learning to be men. Salesian quarterback, Iim Frankoski, scrambles once again . . . his elusive running and deceptive ball handling kept Salesianls offensive moving. With this year's experience behind him, Jim should have a fine season in '67. 115

John Chikos's sprinting efforts are cut short by a vicious Austin linebacker. John, the team's co-captain and a fine performer, was an experienced asset to the club. Unfortunately, he was sidelined with an injury early in the season. A leg injury in the De La Salle game cost Salesian the services of its fme center and ccrcaptain, George Boisneau. George spent the remainder of the season on crutches, hut he never failed to oHer his support to his fellow players. E i f Q , s s S i 1 .S
