1906 - Football Team Wins

Source: Waveland Independent Newspaper, Waveland, Montgomery County, Indiana Thursday, Nov 29, 1906


The High School Football team wound up the season, Saturday, in a blaze of glory, beating Roachdale to the tune of 23-0. The Roachdale boys were heavy, willing and cheerful, but they wer enot in it when it came to team play. Both sides confined themselves largerly to line work and no forward passes were made. Waveland quickly made her first touchdown but failed to kick goal. Another touchdown was made in the first half and two in the last and all three goals were successfully negotiated. The crowd was rather slim but enthusiastic. The team has played four games, winning them all as follows: Kingman 5-0; Rockville 10-0; Roachdale at Roachdale 14-4 and the Saturday game here. A total of 52-4 with not a point lost on the home ground. -- kbz
