Slight Optimism For Indian Camp Haskell Institute Gridders
Head coach Warner Coffin leads a 55 man Haskell Institute squad to open drills in Lawrence. With positions unsettled and limited reserve strength, Coffin expects competition at guard and end as the Indians build toward a season opener with Wellsite. Haskell will not count in the Jayhawk League this year and schedules five home games with a Nov 14 at Emporia closing the season.
