There was a certain amount of controversy concerning the select-ion of the All-SCOL football team at the end of the 1963 season. It seems that these honorary all-star teams are always arbitrary and nearly always, in some way, controversial. All the coaches wanted to get as many honors for their players as they possibly could. Former Hillsboro sports writer Don Edwards questioned Wilmington’s getting nine players on the offensive and defensive All-SCOL teams, when Hillsboro got none. “If Wilmington had all the good players and Hillsboro had none, how did the Indians beat Wilmington on their home field?” he wondered.
