TheMaximumHornetSting Posted June 29, 2023 Report Share Posted June 29, 2023 @HawgGoneIt I actually had to go through Hawkinsville recently for some work related traveling out to Eastman... I stopped in Hawkinsville and man maybe you can explain something to me. I saw a shit ton of solar farms and a massive swathe of unused land that has some strip mall signs up and construction on going. But not only that Tyson and Perdue signs up everywhere there was a nice subdivision of 2 and 3 story homes being built up on the west end and east end past the river with yet again Tyson and Perdue signs. Are these companies buying out the farms? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedZone Posted June 29, 2023 Report Share Posted June 29, 2023 1946 Jesuit Blue Jays from NOLA......played 3 OOS football games that year. Jesuit domiated ALL sports in Louisiana in 1946 Everyone that has been raised in the Jesuit tradition is familiar with the legendary year of 1946. In that single calendar year, Jesuit captured the Louisiana State championships in Basketball, Track and Field, Baseball and finally Football. To make it even sweeter, they captured the American Legion State and World Series Titles. It is thought that perhaps no other major high school in America has ever equaled such a record in interscholastic athletics. The Jays had a great bunch of athletes and put them to very good use. Every first year student on Carrollton Avenue has had the experience of wandering down the school’s Hall of Champions and looking in awe at the 1946 photographs and trophies. 1946 Football Season Record: Jesuit: (Gernon Brown, CoachPensacola, FL 24-6Baton Rouge 41-14St. Aloysius 13-0Boys High (Atlanta, Ga.) 20-0St. Stanislaus 31-6Nicholls 55-0Peters 41-6Holy Cross 32-0Fortier 20-7Warren Easton 27-6Istrouma 19-6 (So.

Nolebull813 Posted June 29, 2023 Report Share Posted June 29, 2023 In 1960, Jesuit High from New Orleans Louisiana went 12-1 and won the State championship. Their regular season point difference was 301-33. They won 3 playoff games to clinch the title. The one loss? A 19-7 butt pounding by Pensacola Florida!!!!!!

Wooderson Posted July 2, 2023 Report Share Posted July 2, 2023 1962 Marana (AZ) Tigers Gila Bend - 54-0 Benson - 25-7 Thatcher - 51-0 Superior - 52-6 Florence - 28-0 Ray - 14-13 Hayden - 6-6 Gilbert - 34-13 Duncan - 45-6 The first of four undefeated 1960s Marana squads, this squad was led by future Bengals' All-Pro running back Paul Robinson. This was one of the final seasons before Arizona's Class B ranks had a playoff system, thus the Tigers' tie versus Hayden (who would also finish 8-0-1) cost Marana a state title claim.

They made a return trip in 1951 and defeated NC champions New Hanover. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of these schools have been playing football since the 1870s-80s... I think Marist is the oldest one still around from that era...

Americus HS is now apart of Americus-Sumter HS after some very unfortunate consolidation...

MA Fan Posted July 10, 2023 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2023 Somehow I have neglected Maine teams until now. 1919 Portland (ME) Deering 42-0 Phillips Exeter (NH) 6-21 Kents Hill 13-7 Bangor 0-6 Waltham (MA) 13-6 Lewiston 7-0 Bangor 0-0 Manchester (NH) 13-7 Deering 12-0 Harrisburg Tech (PA) 0-56 Harrisburg Tech outscored opponents 701-0 on the season. Portland traveled to play them on short notice after Harrisburg's original opponents from Buffalo canceled. The game was billed as being for the national championship despite Portland's losses. After getting a look at the Harrisburg Tech team, the Portland coach apparently regretted accepting the invitation--years later a Portland player told the local newspaper that the coach's pregame speech was "Every now and then someone makes a mistake. I did. This team could beat many college teams. Just go out there and do your best and hope nobody gets hurt." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wooderson Posted September 20, 2023 Report Share Posted September 20, 2023 YouTube recommended this to me and it's been a treat; this was the premier rivalry game on the westside of Phoenix during this time and games were often moved to Glendale Community College to accommodate crowds in excess of 10K people (the game in the video was no exception). Despite what the title says all indicators are this was from the 1991 season; Cactus would be a 4A state semifinalist this year while Peoria would make it to the quarterfinals. Both were 10-win teams that finished ahead of eventual state champ Agua Fria in regular season league play. A couple years after this Peoria had shirts declaring themselves "the Mercedes of West Valley football"; when Cactus' HC got wind of this he had a shirt created that declared they'd rather drive an old Volkswagen than a Mercedes with stolen parts (Peoria was always beset with rumors of impropriety). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
