. Finishes Strong The J.V. Warriors exper- ienced a slow start but bounced back to win three out of their last four games and finish with a 3-6 record. Coach Tom Guinnee was pleased with the latter part of the season. The three wins indicated noticeable improvements not only in the ballplayers but also in the coaches' comprehension of the new system. For the first time the j.V. ran the option and as the season progressed they be- came familiar with the new offense as well as a different defense. Despite their record, the fast finish indicated that the Warriors have already started the climb to winning varsity careers. Before the ball is hiked, the sopho- mores prepare for the upcoming play. 88 IV Football After a run by Mark Norris, the War- riors are credited with a first down.

A Team With Potential Although the Freshman foot- ball team encountered a win- less season, the young War- riors showed that they have a promising future. Finishing with an O-6 mark, they played better than the record indicated. Their opening games were lost by very slim margins. Their overall improvement was visible. Both coaches, Mr. Charles Peabody and Mr. Scott McBride felt that a fast start may have tired out the first- year players . But the competition and the improvement they exper- ienced should enable the Freshmen to continue to im- prove throughout their high school careers . Freshman fullback Tim Long wisely follows his leading wall of blockers.
