sports Wheatfield football had its humble be- ginnings in 1939 when a six -man team took to the field as a change from fall softball. This change brought about a tradition of winning teams, starting the next year when they won the Kankakee Valley championship . The first cham - pionship was led by Coach MacOwan. Since then there have been several other coaches, hundreds of players, many victories, and in recent years, many heartbreaking losses. Each of these teams has left its mark on Wheatfield High School and a sense of pride which will be remembered long after the doors of Wheatfield are closed. Football is not the only area in which Wheatfield can take pride . Wheatfield ' s basketball teams have always shown ability, pride, sportsmanship, and a winning tradition in their years of exist- ence. In the ' 37 - ' 38 season, the Red Devils won 19 out of 20 games. In the ' 38 -’39 season the Red Devils won 13 out of their 19 games; but in the Kanka- kee Valley Tourney, Medaryville came out victorious. These are a few exam- ples of the fine teams always started by Wheatfield . In recent years the Red Devils have had sectional victories in the 50, ’65, and ' 67 seasons. The winning tradition set by these teams will always be remembered by every past and present student of Wheatfield. As Wheatfield High School comes to a close, we can look back and hope this tradition will be carried on into the new Kankakee Valley High School .
