McClain Tiger football coach Bob Watts, now in his third year, knew that his 1962 team would be one of the smaller teams in the SCOL.

They did have some  speedy ball carriers, most notably 150-pound halfback Jim Coleman and 160-pound sophomore Ralph Nooks, who would do the kicking.

GREENFIELD – The McClain Tigers are hurting by battling injuries and illnesses, but they aren’t out.
