Clinton JVs Host
MAKES WINNING CATCH — Francis Coop
er, a freshman halfback from Clinton, made the
winning catch Saturday night as Presbyterian Col
lege came from behind to defeat Catawba 21-14.
Cooper, covered by two Catawba defenders, made
a diving end zone catch of a pass by freshman
quarterback Allen McNeill who played last season
at Lower Richland High School. [
PC Blue Hose Journey
Clinton High’s Junior; Varsity used a fumble
recovery to keep- its win streak intact last week in
pulling out a 6-0 win at Woodruff.
Linebacker Lawrence Lee slammed into a
Woodruff back who fumbled. Halfback Wells Goss
picked up the ball and ran it back 40 yards to score.
i ;
Clipton now has a 7-0 record and tonight will
play host to Newberry on the high school field.
Clinton can wrap up the Eastern Conference Jun
ior Varsity |;itle with a win over Newberry. Clin
ton’s closest competitor for the crown is Union,
which has lost twice. Clinton will close out the
season next Thursday; also at home, against Union.
Clinton Coach Preston Cox was pleased with
the defensive play of the entire team, but said
the offense couldn’t get going.
Clinton had three long drives which put them
in scoring position, but all three threats were stop
ped by fumbles.
Woodruff managed only one serious threat. A
poor Clinton punt gave Woodruff the ball at Clin
ton’s 35-yard line, but the defense met the t%st
and held for downs.
