FOOTBALL The team finished 5-4; for some it was better than that, for some worse. There were great gains and good games; there were injuries and bad games; there was rain. But the overall philosophy was maintained— to glorify the Lord, and to be the best team pos- sible with God ' s help. The highlight of the year was defeat- ing Hanover 13-12. It was their home- coming. Other victories were over Olivet, Defiance, BlufFton, and Earlham. Steve Hall was named Rookie of the Year , Ray Satterblom was most valu- able on offense, and Jim McFarland was the most valuable defensive player. Jim and Gordon Pritz were both given All-American honors. SS 3.Jti T Saf rlE ' Sil flJ TBJAB ' V itr il9t ' ' ' ■9 j,9 ' •- r ' Siz.f TUHM 1 VUlW Km3 «A A S THOMNS M0 iffllWi P mM m Front row: B.

My parents came to see what it was really like here. They stood in line, walked in the rain, met my friends, went to the movie, and saw me here in my second home. I think they went home more confident that I was getting along o.k., that I was happy, and that I was growing spiritually. We won the game and of course Dad, acting as a typical bleacher coach, said he knew we ' d win all along. And Mom sure enough, she made my bed and cleaned my room. It was great to have them here .

Sleeping, eating, living football for 10 weeks takes a lot of desire and discipline. Sometimes you get tired of it and dream of the end, but there is something about it— it gets in you— and when the end comes you start looking forward to early camp and the next season — if you have one.
