FOOTBALL

The Demons again were at the top of the heap as the regular schedule play ended . Coaches Eaton and Lewis led a group of relatively inexperienced boys, with weak bench support, to a three-way tie for the league championship.

Coach Eaton displayed his ability to get the most out of his material as he manipulated his line-up to fill in for injured first stringers. The "never say die" spirit of the club was something to behold as the boys battled against odds.

In the play-offs Golden lost to both Aurora and Lakewood, thereby losing the privilege to continue in the state play-offs.

The success of the season was dimmed only by the announcement, later in the year, of the resignation of Coach Eaton. But hopes brightened for next year as capable Billy Lewis was selected to guide the future destiny of the team.

The wrestling squads of Golden High School seem, of late, to have a monoply on the championship trophies of the Suburban League. Last year the squad carried home the trophy and this year was no exception .

The squad got off to a fast start and climaxed the season by taking first position in the district meet. Competing against seven other schools, our wrestlers won four first places and three second places qualifying seven men for the state tournament.

With only four seniors on the A squad, the team won ten matches this year while losing five.

In the state meet Archie Archuletta won second inhisweightwhile Doug DeNeui was taking third place in his division.
