COUGAR PLAYER
OF THE WEEK
By Donny Laws
Ray Troxell has/ been
chosen Placer of the Week by
the Mountain Heritage news
paper staff. Troxell demon
strated superior playing abi
lity in the tough defeat to the
Black Hawks of North Bun
combe last Friday night.
Troxell displayed talent
with his running from the
fullback position, a position
which he had never played
before in a game. He showed
exceptional agility and power
in his running attempts. He
gained a total of 53 years on
only 11 rushes. His blocking
also opened up many holes for
his teammates. Troxell was
instrumental in setting up the
first Cougar touchdown.

that the penalty charge was
originally initiated to encour
age members to pay their bills
early and to keep them from
becoming lax with their
payments. Since the majority
of the members do pay on

of monthly billing, ir'was felt
the penalty ipukLbe discon

policy enforced/

the meeting a ballot was given
to choose senior superlatives.
After that the seniors
voted in the new class
officers. They were Jeff
Harding, president; Donald
Angel, vice president; Pam
Hopson, secretary; Stephanie
Angel, treasurer; Tammy
Gilley, reporter.
The next item of business
was to vote on which way to
L J y
sense of the Cougars wonted
excellently with Troxell back
ing up the defensive line at
his linebacker position. He
stalled a Black Hawk scoring
drive by intercepting a pass
on the Cougar one yard line.
Troxell made many unassis
ted tackles and was in on
many of the gang tackles
made by the Cougar defense.
Ray Troxell is but one of
the many fine Cougar football
players who each week in
practice and in games demon
strate the dedication and
desire to have a winning
football 4£am at Mountain
Heritage. So let’s all come out
and support our team as they
play the Sylva-Webster Gol

field this Friday night.
