Coyotes hold their own When the Coyotes opened their 1979-1980 football season on September 7, against Pearsall, the Pack showed that off-season and surnmer's two-a-days were not only exhausting but were also rewarding by defeating the Mavericks 14-9. The 18 Seniors of this year's varsity eagerly anticipated their encounter with Hondo, their long time rivals. For them, however, the Owls once again prevailed. The young seniors had never defeated their arch-rivals in all four years at UHS. The Coyotes' next foe was the Del Rio Rams. Playing before a full house at the Rams' home stadium, the two teams battled through the first half. The second half proved to be much like the game against the Owls. This time, however, the Coyotes marched down the field and with a Frank Gonzales drive, scored the winning touch- down with just seconds left on the clock, and with a Todd Boales' extra point, the game ended 14-13, Uvalde. The Pleasanton Eagles were the first district opponent for the Coyotes. Coming off with a narrow victory over the AAAA Ftams, the Pack kept their winning ways with a 30-7 thrashing of the Eagles. Coming home after two straight out of town games, the Coyotes tangled with the tough San Antonio Madison Mavericks. Battling the giant line of Madison, the Coyotes gave the Mavs all they could handle but came on the short end of the board, 20-6. The Pack celebrated Homecoming by trouncing the Southwest Dragons 13-O. The Homecoming victory raised the Coyotes' record to four wins and two losses. The Fredericksburg Billies took advan- tage of Uvalde's inability to move the ball and came up with a surprising upset, 21-O. The Coyotes could only manage a total of 17 yards on the ground. Their last chance to defeat the Kerrville Antlers before they were moved to a new zone failed. Coyotes lost to their old nemesis 13-O. The Coyotes got their act together and came out successful with two convincing victories to end their season with a 6-4 by defeating San Antonio West Campus 42-0 and Carrizo Springs 21-8. Members of the 19791980 Coyote K coaching include tFFtONT ROWJ Doug Connor, Frank Trevino Jerry Lee QBACK ROWJ Kyle Bolen John Ferrara Joe Townsend
