Soph keep hope in pite of losses Competition meant more than the win and loss record to To- kay's sophomore football team. lt meant that the games were played with sportsmanship and a good attitude. Despite Tokay's sophomore football team's 2-8 record, the team played with a good attitude all year, according to Kyle Rohde, first year head coach. Having fun is the most im- portant thing, winning ball games comes with it,', said Coach Rohde. Coach Rohde's goals for the team were to win ball games and represent Tokay High with a banner. Tokay recorded its wins against Stagg 38-6 and cross town rival Lodi High l4-10. We made mistakes against the easy teams and against the tough teams we played them tough with a chance to win all the time, Coach Rohde said.

We didn't make the turnovers that we made in the first half offensively and we played the teams evenly on defense in the second half, said Coach Rohde. Coach Rohde believed that the team played better in the last two games because of daylight sav- ings time. The last two games were against the undefeated Tracy Bulldogs in which Tokay only lost 7-O and the Lodi Flames which Tokay won l4-10. Both of these games were played under the lights for the second half. Football is a game, whether you win or lose, you have got to love it, Coach Rohde said.
