Norwalk Truckers look to improve after tough 1972 season
Norwalk High School football coach Bob Hart backs a realistic .500 goal as the Truckers prepare for 1973. He notes improved depth and conditioning with six players able to press 200 pounds, 53 players out, ten lettermen, and a tough schedule starting Sept. 7 at Huron. Enduring turnover at quarterback and limited depth remain challenges.
