game.
Built around a nucleus OF sopho-

made football history at Lincoln
high school, where they PLAYED

method demonstrated its effective
ness in a a to 6 victory over the

Believing that football players
must love the game" to play 1t
successfully, Coach Bible has placed
much emphasis on the mental con-
