Coaches . . . A Special Thank-You Do we as students ever take any time to actually thank our coaches? Maybe so, but no words can ever express our gratitude for these teachers who devote so much to us. When you stop to think about it, wouldn’t you agree that coaches are the most patient people in the world? How else could they drag us out of bed at 5:00 a.m. to come to practice before school, or on Saturdays? And also spend hours after school just so we can practice. Our coaches become not only teachers but also very special friends. They give us so much of their time, and in exchange we’re expected to do our best possible. We’re not perfect, in fact we’re a long way from it, but as long as coaches give us so much and hold high expectations for us, we as students shall always attempt to do our utmost. So consider this a very, very special thank-you to all our coaches. Football coaches, assistant Will Mulroney. head Dan Mollaun, and assistant Dennis Flack try to predict the out-come of the Cougar’s next play. The Cougars lost this ballgame to Batesville. Coach Forrest Gray watches and ad- vises his Young Cougars as they gain yardage. Girls basketball coach Joy Ayre gives her team some tips before they go against Greensburg's girls for the first time. Junior High Football coaches Bill Ott and Forrest Gray have the pleasure of presenting team members with cer- tificates. and two young up-coming Cougars with trophies.

Jr. High Football Team Has Winning Season The Junior High football team had a very successful season. Their record was 3-2 with one tied ballgame. The many eighth grade boys on the team gave much leadership and were responsible for the success of the team. They were very hard working and enthusiastic, which as Coach Ott told us, made them very easy and fun to coach. The seventh graders on the team were small and inex- perienced but they contributed much to the total success of the team. The boys will go on to make future Cougar teams better and more successful. The action is rough and tangled during a Junior High football game. Jr. High Football 30 Jr. High Football
