Seniors add The Conference champions, Southeast Falcons, swept down on our homecoming and destroyed dreams of a conference victory. Halfback Charlie Welch penetrated our defense for touchdowns as the Confed offense could not pile up enough points. The Falcons took home an 18-13 win. The mighty Confeds earned a state play- off bid by conquering the Eastern Eagles 33-13. Backs Sam Fisher and Andy Patterson led the rushing attack as they scored six points each. The Southerners also took to the air as Bobby Guthrie found end Brent Isley in the end-zone for a sixteen yard touchdown. Warren Hardin caught another and raced across the goal line. Ready for action. Confed rush on Mt. Airy Quarterback. Isley hauls in aerial. 66
