Woodruff got a b g break on a pass inter ference call which set up 7-3-1 Season Surprised Coach A 7-3-1 record isn’t bad for a football season which was expected to be an “off-year.” After the final {fame last Friday, Clintoh High Coach Claude Howe admitted that at the start of the season, he didn’t think the Red Devils would do as well as they did. “1 thought it might be an off-year. We didn’t have a quarterback with any varsity experience. We only had one end and a guard who were experi ence and our fullback was the only returning back. “Also, we were thin in numbers. tVe didn’t have much depth. But the boys came through. Barry Mauldin turned out to be a fine quarterback and he progessed each game. They never gave up in any game.” Looking ahead to next vear, when all of this year’s offensive starters will be gone due to grad uation, Howe said, ‘We’re going to need some help next season. We have some fine players coming up from this year’s undefeated junior varsity team but it’s a big step from JV to varsity ball. We’ll have to wait and see how they grow and mature.” in practice last week, lc ^ on w jp 1 a broken arm. whipped the Red qevils tc Tommy Woodruff’s eight-yard-hnf .
