Frosh post best season Marshall loss crushes district hopes The freshman football players are in- deed a new talent. The boys, led by coaches Kevin Ott, and Larry Martin posted one of the best seasons a freshman team has ever scored. The freshman prov- ed to be strong in every sense of the word, Clark, and as all other competitive teams, they too, wanted to be winners over the Rams. Faced with a similar fate to the junior varsity team, they ended up losing to Marshall 14-21. This loss ending all hopes for a first place in district, and this also being the loss that ended their regular season play.

These are several aspects the team lacked in play this year. The season was less than successful but the boys all have one redeeming quality, the fact that the players have a common goal and they have decided to pull together and work for that goal. The boys never seemed to get a winning streak going. They were unable to win more than two games in a row. They ran over such teams as Del Rio, by a score of 60-25 and Edgewood 73- 42. The major loss was suffered at the sea- son's end, to Marshall by a score of 42-53. The starting team consisted of only two seniors, Russ Snider and Lane Bishop. Like so many of the athletic teams of the year, it was obvious basketball lacked experi- ence. The boys, being a young team, faced a tough schedule, and just hope next year they can maintain Clark's name for basket- ball. V tyB ktbll 73
