This team was the first team to take an overseas tour, spring break to England. Beat Cranwell on a superb try by Jerry Olin, who was set up by a MacDougall pass. Lost a close game to Sandhurst in a match where we thought Sean Edris broke his neck. Caught a VC-10 back after a rousing party at Cranwell; Col Manners led the charge.
Won the Coors cup in the fall AND the spring, retiring it to a prominent place in Arnold Hall. Dave MacDougall selected as outstanding player of the championship game
Scoring leaders for the year: Olin (54), Grayson (33), Miller (30), Stanberry (26) Yaniglos and Benson (21 each), MacDougall (18) and Keith (15)
