Coach Shelton Chesson has
formulated the recipe for a
winning football team. For the
first time in a couple of years
the junior varsity has ac
complished something — a
winning season. With their
present 5-1-1 record the JV
members should receive
everyone’s congratulations and
support.
When asked why the team is
doing so well this year, Coach
Chesson answered that the
team has more members.
Therefore, he can play more
people so that the players do not
get very tired. In previous
years, Coach Chesson has had
to play some on both offense and
defense during the same game.
The RMSH Jayvees have had
a good season thus far. The
Baby Gryphs have lost to
Greenville Rose. The Jayvees
have a 5-1-1 record this season.
RM JV vs Broughton JV
The RMSH Jayvees ripped
Broughton 21-0 to push their
record to 3-0. The Baby Gryphs
gained 282 yards to 98 for
Broughton. Lindon Willis
passed for one TD and ran for
another. The defense sacked the
quarterback six times.
RM JV vs. Durham JV
The Baby Gryphs shut out the
Bull pups 22-0. The Jayvees
amassed 336 total yards. The
Durham JV’s had 127 yards
total offense. Terry Brown
rushed for 103 yards. Lindon
Willis passed for two TD’s.
RM JV vs. Hillside JV
The RMSH Jayvees won a
close one to make their record 5-
0. The Baby Gryphs defeated
Hillside JV’s 8-6. The Baby
Hornets out-gained the Gryph
Jayvees 193 to 167. Terry
Brown scored the only Gryphon
TD.
RM JV vs. Rose JV
The Baby Gryphs suffered
their first loss of the season. The
Baby Rampants defeated the
Baby Gryphs 6-0. Everything
Coach Chesson stated that the
spirit of his team is “pretty
good, especially when they are
winning.”
According to Coach Chesson,
the junior varsity football team
has several outstanding
players. Dennis Court is a good
blocking fullback and
linebacker. Lindon Willis is
good at throwing and running.
Mike Upchurch is successful as
linebacker. Mike Battle and
Darrell Jordon are quick and
strong tackles. Anthony Titus
and James Bynum are good
defensive ends. However, the
defensive backfield is too weak
and not aggressive enough.
This year’s team is a good
group of players. If they stay
went wrong for the Jayvees.
The Baby Gryphs had a number
of scoring chances but they
could not cash in.
RM JV vs Northeastern JV
The Baby Gryphs tied Nor
theastern JV’s 6-6 to make their
record 5-1-1. Both teams looked
sluggish on offense. They could
not move the ball. It was 6-0
after one half. Lindon Willis
passed to James Bynum for the
only Gryphon TD.
together, the team will continue
to have a successful season. If
the players gain more weight by
next year, RMSH varsity and
junior varsity teams will be
much better.
Coach Chesson said that the
teams from Wilson Fike and
Northern Nash are the most
difficult opponents that the
RMSH junior varsity team will
face. Hopefully, the Gryphons
will defeat these teams when
they meet on October 31 and
November 7.
The junior varsity team is
made up of both sophomores
and juniors. They are not, as
many people choose to assume,
leftovers from the varsity
squad. Many juniors who could
possibly make the varsity and
“sit the bench,” prefer to be on
the field playing junior varsity
football to gain experience. To
these players, learning through
experience is more important
than riding with the varsity
team. It is this attitude that can
make for a winning season.
With their attitude and talent,
the junior varsity players have
overcome the stereotyped
impression that they are
branded with. The 1974 junior
varsity members are winners
on the field and off. The season
is not yet over; it is not too late
to support the junior varsity
football team.
November is set apart by the
booming of many guns. This is
the time to put away most of the
finishing tackle, to go over the
big-game guns, to dress and
waterpoof the footwear, and to
get out the heavy clothing. It’s
the time for vigorous days
outdoors and friendly quiet
evenings inside.
For all-day hunting trips
when the weather is damp,
water-proof matches are a
blessing to have. Matches can
be effectively waterproofed by
dipping them about halfway
into thin shellac or varnish. This
not only protects them from the
November moisture, but adds to
their burning quality, since
these solutions are flammable.
Rabbit season makes its
appearance the 23 of November.
The daily bag limit is five,
possession, of 10, and 75 for the
season. (Who keeps up with a
season amount?)
When using split shot for
sinkers on a fishing line, often
times you’ll find that they slip.
Split shot won’t slip if you insert
a small piece of rubber balloon
in the slit before you pinch the
shot onto the line. Trim off the
excess rubber and. everything’s
set.
Perplexed as to what to do
with an old pair of camouflage
pants, RMSH’s own Bill Wilson
came up with this idea. The
pants were altered into a bow-
cover for his hunting bow. The
same thing could be done for
your gun. The idea is that the
cover keeps the sun from
throwing a glare off the barrel
and scaring off the game.
The price of hunting boots has
led to buying only one pair of
boots for multi-season use. This
has presented the problem of
how big to buy them. Should you
allow for the extra socks of
winter, or buy to fit the light
weight socks of summer? A
solution to this problem is to buy
for the winter socks and during
warm weather, wear innersoles
in the boots. These innersoles
are inexpensive, they maintain
a proper fit, cushion your walk,
and absorb perspiration.
November 23 marks the
beginning of quail season. Daily
limit; 10; possession: 20; and
season: 100. Be sure to buy
plenty of shells for the season
from any of our local athletic
stores or sports departments.
