DETERMINATION AND WORK The 1964 edition of Westmar College’s Fighting Eagle football team was one of success. It included the school’s first Tri-state conference football title. The 1965 edition is no less spectacular. The Eagle team repeated as champs of the Tri-state confer- ence by tying Midland’s conference record of 5—1. The Eagles overall record is 7—1—1. Never before had there been a repeat champion in the Tri-state conference. The 1965 season provided a chance for the Eagle football team! 146 The enthusiasm and desire were present when head coach Jack Scott and his assistants began conditioning the squad for the coming season. As the season drew nearer the spirit increased. The Eagles wanted that championship for the second consecutive year. The first test for the Eagles was a non-conference game against Graceland. Westmar came shining through with a 21—0 victory.

Then came a close defeat by Midland in a hard fought contest, the final outcome being 12—7. There still remained a good chance for Westmar to gain that championship. Seriously hampered by injuries the Eagles traveled to Bethel for a non-conference game and returned with a 13—13 tie. The following week the Westmar Eagles went up against Dana and pulled out a 14—0 win giving the Eagles a 4—1 record. This set the stage for Westmar’s contest against Yankton, who had pre- 147 viously beaten Midland. In order to get their lions share of the conference title, the Eagles needed a victory here. But first Westmar warmed up for Yankton by de- feating Tarkio 46—26 in a non-conference game. The game against Yankton was. the most exciting game of the season. With only a few minutes left to play Westmar scored the final touchdown and extra point to come away with a 14—13 victory. Westmar’s conference championship for the second consecutive year was a first for the conference. Thus the 1965 edition of Westmar’s fighting Eagle football tearn closed with a victory ride for the coach and a second straight gold football. ROW 4—Terry
