The football banquet this year just had to be the best ever, for the talent assembled there was the best combination of ingredients, a shining state trophy, smiling coaches, and proud football players. Mr. Paulie Miller, Assistant Coach at the University of liouisville, was guest speaker. He praised Seneca for its fine Coaching staff, great teamwork. and individual effort. His tremendous voice was easily heard as he ad- vised the boys on the need for determination in football. Then the awards were given out to their respective claimants. The best linemen were Greg Karem and Phil Thompson. Awards for the best backs went to Garnett Schott, Ron Garrison, llilton Humphrey and Charlie Petry. The most improved player was Dwight Allen, and the J.V. Awards went to John Marcum, Bob Wixson, and Carie Eaves. A fine dinner, good company, a gleaming trophy! Could one ask for more? Thanks, Coach!

tate Champion It should be pointed out that this victory did not come easily. Months of hard work were devoted to football by boys who had one major thought in their heads: to become champions. It took great individual efforts on the part of many boys working together as a team. Team leaders such as All-Statelrs Phil Thompson and Greg Karem, along with power-plus backs Ron Garrison, Charlie Petry, and Garnett Schott, were standouts throughout the year. Coach Ron Cain and his staff cannot be given enough credit and thanks for their efforts and success in building a winning team. Another essential element in winning is the support of the student body. No one can deny that this team had en- thusiastic support throughout the season. After the first few weeks of the school year, the spirit of Seneca students reached a new all-time high. There were massive turnouts for all the gamesg we won the School Spirit Contest for the second year in a row. Stated simply, we gave the team more support than they had ever had. The person responsible for this could be Coach Cain, who at the beginning called our spirit worse than a cold mashed potato sandwich. At the end of the season, he called this same spirit unbelievable There were pep rallies that failed, but during games no- body meant to do anything but succeed. There were parades before the Flaget game and on the following Sunday after- noon in which the spirit was demonstrated. The Victory Celebration was great! Several carloads of people showed up at the school, ready to drive through town toasting the number one school with its number one team and number one coach. Led by a police escort, the parade went through the heart of the city. The rally which followed was high- lighted by speeches by local dignitaries and team members Seneca was number one, which they will surely continue ff' The team prepares to lead the parade.

Seneca Basketball Eeft to right: Mr. Young, Mr. Hamm, Ronnie Rogers, Julius Prince, Terry Triplett, Larry Trunnell, Mike Hay Phil Thompson Jon iggs, Bob Laile, Howard Farrell, James Overal, Scott Hunt, Mr. Ash. Kneeling: Paul Cyrus, Bob Tharp, Maurice Crawford OUR VARSITY MEN Lonesome has always been proud of his basketball team, and this yearis team is surely one in which every Redskin must take pride. Many hours of grueling work and practice must be de- voted by each member, and this teamwork has proved its value. ln Senecais opening game against Western the 'Skins used their strategy by scoring twenty-nine points in the final quarter to win the game 72-65. Trunnell led the scoring with twenty-six points. In the battle with Thomas Jefferson, rated number five in the state, Seneca again revealed its power by tieing ,and holding the Patriots within points during the first half. Larry Trunnell served his fourth year on the varsity squad, and the playing of Hay, Triplett, Overall, Prince, and Farrell proved invaluable. Mr. Ash, head b-ball coach, assisted by coaches Young and Hamm, directed the hard-driving team. With four seniors to lead the way, our 1965-66 basketball team has dem- onstrated a valuable lesson to all of Lonesome's Redskin tribe. Any person or group of persons can accept victory easily, but it takes a better person to swallow the defeats that life hands out and have the determination to strengthen his Weakness and rise to even greater heights. This is true sportsmanship. COACH ASH
