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.”
