The Varsity Football Team suffered through a tough 4-5 season. The Chiefs were victims of a tough schedule, playing state playoff teams Brown City and Schoolcraft. The team started the season rattling off three consecutive victories against Edwardsburg, Climax Scotts and Mendon. The Mendon game broke a school record of seventeen straight victories. The Chiefs handed coaches Marv Schnieder and Pat West their 100th victory against Colon. The team won 16-0 on a very wet and sloppy field. This is another one of those things that makes you feel like you have been successful, explained Coach Schnieder. The Chiefs' offensive arsenal came from All-Conference senior halfback Tom Clipfell who rushed for 872 hard-fought yards. When the Chiefs went to the air they looked for All-Conference senior tight end Dan Garl who recorded twenty-two receptions for 418 yards. The muscle in the trenches was supplied by All-Conference senior tackle Rob Stauffer. On the other side of the field, the Chiefs were led by senior linebacker James Snodgrass with eighty-seven tackles. Junior linebacker Rob Jonker contributed eighty-five tackles, twenty of which were solos. This was definitely a frustrating season for the Varsity, but winning Coaches Schnieder and West their 100th career victory made both the team and fans very proud to be a part of White Pigeon football.
