WASSON SACKS THIRD ON S.C.L. GRIDIRON nder the leadership of head coach Dick Westbay, backfield coach George Kalber, end coach Tom Falgien, defensive coach Bob Eastock and line coach Ed Green, the T-Bird gridders saw their hopes for the S.C.L. title slip away with a referee's decision during the crucial game with undefeated Trinidad. The call came with less than a minute left in the game when defensive end Mike Rothe scooped up a Trinidad fum- ble and ran it into the end zone. This would have tied the game, and an extra point would have given the T-Birds a victory. However, the referee, who was closely watching the play, had blown the whistle, nul- lifying the touchdown. After a grueling game the football team pauses for a moment ofprayer 2 E i Exerting everything he has, a T-bird receiver lunges for the pigskin. The Thunderbirds, however, came back to win the next four out of five games. One of these wins came with a 19-0 defeat over 4th place South. The biggest win of the year, though, was the last game of the sea- son when the Wasson gridders stomped Adams City of the Skyline League, 38-13. Bringing individual honors to the team were Mike Bennett and Mike Rothe, who were both selected to the first All-South Central League first offensive and defensive teams.
