Our main objective was to develop a solid, hard hitting i defensive team. We accomplished this task-only two teams scored more than six points against us. Very few teams we played could sustain a drive against our defense. Our weakest point was in pass defense, and if this area was stronger we would have won more than three of our ten games. j Our offense was sporadic the first part of the season , but in the last five games we gained over 100 yards per game. This was done through the efforts of our linemen and running backs. The area that hurt us the most was not having a scoring punch. We had three J. V. All League players that should be key personnel in next year's club. These players are Ike Hernandez, Ken Smith, and Ken Matsumoto. Other players that should help the Varsity squad are: Mike Thum, Rod Peagler, Duane Lewis, Dennis Thum, Bert Williams, Chuck Trujillo, Jim Uriate, Randy Forsland, and Curt Fujino. 4

Hamilton league Frosh Championship. After receiving an early season loss at the hands of Ayer, in what would be called a close and controversial game 416 - 145, Reggie led the Frosh team to five consecutive wins, for a season- ending 6 - 1 record. Much of the credit must be given to Silver Creek's outstanding monster defense, which was led by all-league selections, Rich Saygano, Herb Neves, Tom Cabral, Ron Sanchez, Jeff Johnson, Rich Telly and Reggie Eaton. The offense was led by the receiving of Paul Hoff and Wes Matsonoto and the running of Jim Patty, Jim Mayfield, Tom Cabral, and Herb Neves, but all this could not have come about without the unsung heroes of the offensive line: Dave Nemons, Gordy Lugino, Keith Haga, Steve Johnson, Chet Lesser and Ray Salaz. Other contributors were Irv Everett, Ruben Arenda and Earl Woods.
