The last several weeks of this period found the Redskins preparing for one of their most challenging games of the year against Thomas Jefferson. Many fans doubted a win over this powerful team, but the troops of Coach Cain were out to make believers of our people that night. Led by new quarterback, Ronnie Rogers, and halfback, Scotty Hunt, we destroyed the Patriots by a score of 27-0 for our biggest win of the season. Later on in the season, the Redskins took a trip to Pleasure Ridge Park. We were up against the team that had the best record in the county, and the going was tough, but we came from thirteen points down to win by the score of 85-83, for win number sixteen against two losses. Moments of athletic victories, a few stand out from all the rest. He Spring of 1966 found Seneca boasting a fine baseball team, and come district tournament time we achieved what could be called, without a doubt, one of the greatest victo- ries in Seneca history. Against arch-rival Waggener, Lone- some came from behind to give the team its most thrilling win. Down by three runs with nobody on base and two men out in the seventh inning, the Redskins did the unbelievable -they tied the score, sent the game into extra innings, and won. Winter found Lonesome wrapped up in another basket- ball season, and Christmas brought him a fine present. the East Jefferson County Invitational Tournament title. The Redskins began with a 68-63 victory over Trinity and tuned up for a strong Thomas Jefferson squad. In what should have been a close game, the l'Skins routed the Patriots 74-59. Moving into the finals against a tough Westport club, the team brought home the first basketball trophy in three years, winning 57-46. ln February of '67 the girl's track team was well-repre- sented in the Mason-Dixon Games. Obea Crittenden won her preliminary heat and placed third overall in the 70 yard dash. The 440 relay team also competed and placed second in their heat to provide a fitting climax to an exciting Seneca sports year.
