Westwood Has Super Fantastic Football Team I think it will take some time for the players to learn what I expect from them, and also for myself to learn what they are capable of doing. These were the feelings of first year head varsity coach Jerry Loper as his team was preparing for the 1976-77 campaign. Everybody learned awfully quick as the Tribe gridiron machine marched through the season with a pow- erful reputation. After a season-opening victory over Alhambra C10-0 on the roadh they pleased a home crowd of nearly 9,000 fans with a supurb triumph over arch-rival Mesa High, 29-6. Then, despite a loss to Tempe, the Tribe proved they were no fluke as they stomped past then undefeated and fourth-ranked Marcos DeNiza, 26-7. Big performances were turned in throughout the year by Lyle Bighorn, Bart Day, Robbie Hargus, Mark Gut- ierrez, Fred Freeman, Joe Farnsworth, Bill Webster and Craig McLaws.
