A: 12,445.Youth footballReturning from last year’s team, and expected to take over leadership roles are football stars Will Fox and Reader Steward.Fox, a 5-10 guard, and Steward, a 5-11 forward, “shoot well, drive well and should be among the best players in the city,” according to Vogel. Steward is the kind of forward who can go against bigger kids and come out on top.”Cholla’s depth also figures to be an asset. Vogel foresees 10 of his players seeing lots of action this season. Among the potential standouts are Tim Colter (5-11), Tony Ethridge (6-3), Pat Osborn (6-5), Mike Jackson (6-1), Charles Sherman (6-2), Ron Hopkins (64)), David Morales (5-7) and Dion Jergo (6-1).Among them, Vogel is most impressed with the potential of Mike Jackson, a junior forward, whom he terms “all-city material if he realizes his potential.”“The attitude is really neat right now,” said Vogei of preseason practices. “We’re not a big team, but the attitude is tremendous, and we’re working to become a top defensive club.”1975-’76 ScheduleDECEMBER: 2 —at Rincon. 6-Sabi-no, 12 —of Sahuaro. 16 —Buena. 78 — at Palo Verde.JANUARY: 9 — Santa Rlla. 10 - at Pueblo. 13 — Sunnyside. 16 — at Sal-pointe. 20—at Amphl. 23 — at Tucson. 27 — Catalina. 30—Pueblo.FEBRUARY: 3 — at Santa Rita. 6 -at Sunnvslde. tO — Safpolnte. 13 — Amphl. 17—Tucson. 20—at Catalina.
