WARRIOR 1969 Stillwater Central School Stillwater, New York Foreword Wm We have always been told by our parents and other adults that we are living the best years of our lives. This we found hard to believe. How could the problems and struggles we faced during high school ever constitute any part of the best year of our lives? Now as our final year in high school comes to a close, we realize that these times are worth remembering. The world awaiting us holds many new horizons and new friendships, but we will want to look back at our old friends and teachers with whom we have shared our growth toward maturity. Nor do we want to forget the many memorable experiences of high school. We almost wish time would stand still so we could always be together! We realize the impossibility of our wish; therefore, this book portrays for others, and records for us. the times that have formed - the best years of our lives. 2 Table of Contents Student Life...................7 Administration and............13 Faculty Seniors........................27 Underclassmen..................47 Activities.....................59 Athletics......................71 Elementary.....................85 Advertisements.................97 3 Yearbook Staff MEMBERS OF THE STAFF: Ellen Nobles - Co-editor Jack Overton - Co-editor Kathy Fitzpatrick Michele Filer Judy Guttridge Elise Ether Colman Kusick Laura Vega Vicky Cargill Kathy Ryan Cindy Hope The staff of the 1969 WARRIOR consisted of eleven hard-working Seniors, who gave up most of their extra time to work on the yearbook.

With 16 letter-men returning from last year’s team, the Warriors, while not being rated as the top contender for the Tri-County League title, were, nevertheless, given an outside chance to win. The first game of the season saw Stillwater travel to Ockawamick High for a non-league game. The Warriors were picked as the underdog in the game, but the quality and superb physical condition of our team became apparent when we emerged with a 21-7 victory. Our next game, also non-league, was with South Glens Falls on our field. South High led 6-0 for three quarters, when, early in the fourth quarter, the Warriors took a 7-6 lead. South High, however, fought back to score another touchdown and eventually went on to win 12-7. Schuylerville, a traditional rival, afforded our first league competition. The game, played at home, saw Stillwater romp over the Horses in a 48-13 win. The following Saturday Stillwater faced a well-drilled Hoosick Falls team at our opponent's gridiron. Strong running by our backs and an impenetrable defense brought the Warriors a 20-0 shutout. Returning to Stillwater, the Warriors next faced the St. Peter's eleven. Although it rained throughout most of the game, the Warriors fought to an easy 27-2 victory. Cambridge, a top championship threat, was next in line to fall to the Warriors. Playing at home, Stillwater once again exhibited its explosive offense and unrelenting defense in a 26-0 whitewash over the Indians. The stage was now set for the championship game with Greenwich, also undefeated in league play. At the end of the first half, the Warriors found themselves trailing 13-0, but the second half was a different story as Stillwater fought hack to tie the game at 13-13. On what was to be the last play of the game, the Witches' quarterback dropped back to pass. Finding no one open, he was forced to run, and no Stillwater man was able to stop him. No member of the Warrior squad, especially the fourteen Seniors, will ever forget the last six seconds of the game in which we lost the championship to Greenwich in a hard fought 19-13 defeat. 72 J.

The team also finished second in the Class D Sectionals, losing to Lake George in the finals. With the loss of only two players after graduation, the 1969 Warriors should be one of the best teams in the league. 81 J. V. Baseball ’68 BACK ROW: Coach Lilac, P. Burgess, T. Chase, T. Noonan, J.
