A Season to Forget FOOTBALL The football team posted a 1-8 record this fall. This dismal record was attributed to injuries, a different quarterback, and a new defensive secondary for the start of most games. The team was guided by a new mentor — Jack Stephans, from Jer- sey City State who suffered his first losing season. The squad maintamed Its optimism throughout the season. The young team was made up of freshmen and sophomores. This inexperience showed on the offense where the team only scored eleven touchdowns in the season and the top rusher had 148 yards on his record. TEAM MEMBERS: Joe Albertmi. Lloyd Athlll.
