The defeat at Keller proved to be the last one of the season for Boswell as they came back to win their last two games. The team edged Diamond Hill-Jarvis 10-6 before the last game of the year, which was probably the biggest victory for the Pioneers. The Hornets of Azle came into Pioneer Stadium 8-1 and heavily favored. The Pioneers refused to let the across- the-lake rival beat them, and pulled out a 12-8 victory after a game plagued with turnovers. The Pioneers' offense was spearheaded by the backheld conbination of junior quarterback Brad Shaw, senior fullback Jerry Davis, junior tailback Alvis Yardley, and sophomore tailback Todd Staton. The line, anchored by senior tackle Kevin Otto and senior guards lVlark Rauch and Billy Rose, also did a fine job. Senior receiver Marshall Woolsey led the team in receptions, many of which were touchdowns. The defense once again played a large part. Tackles Otto and Rose led the defensive line and senior Iinebackers Daniel Gutierrez, Keith Jackson and Jody Johnson did a hne job throughout the year.
