In a game where the two teams were equally matched the Saugus Offense was able to come up with 6 points in the last few minutes to defeat Gloucester 6-0.

Defensive stars were awarded to PAT LeBRANTI and PHIL NAPOLITANO while JOHN CHAMBER- LAIN , JOHN PRENTICE and JAY STAPLES shared the Offensive star. Game star was awarded to PHIL NAPOLITANO.

JAY STAPLES who scored both TD 1 s for Saugus was awarded the Offensive star. STAPLES scored his second TD by completing a pass from PRENTICE . The game was marked with excellent effort on the part of JIM NIGRO who was awarded the game star. Saugus swamped Swampscott in the final game of the season by a score of 20-6. Scoring twice for Saugus was ROBERT SNYDER who covered 47 yards on 2 plays to give Saugus its 12 points. STAPLES scored on a 15 yard run for 6 more points. NIGRO made the conversion on a pass from LeBRANTI . The defense managed to keep Swampscott scoreless until the last few minutes of the game .

The coaches viewed the season in retrospect as one which saw an inexperienced team develop its athletic talents to a point where it became a cohesive unit. They look forward to an out- standing 79-80 season with the return of 2 veteran starters as running backs. Coach Flynn

In this game an in- experienced Saugus team, down by 3 TD ' s was able to hold Winthrop scoreless in the second half . Playing well for Saugus were PHIL NAPOLI - TANO, PAT LeBRANTI and MARK SWAIN. With one week to practice before facing the Lynn 1 ' A ' 1 team, Saugus vowed to ■ ' do it 1 ' and thus worked hard to strengthen the defense and polish the offense .
