1928
was a struggle to find game articles, but alas pantherfb.org dug deep
into the archives of the old and now defunct Jersey County Democrat.
Although the material shows it's age and is very hard to read, most of
the game stories are more detailed than those from previous years.
Notice that the author of most of these stories was Frederick Miller a
Sophomore. Miller, joined the Varsity football team in 1929 as a Junior
and also played in 1930 while a Senior. He was a very special young man
and gets a special salute from this website for all he accomplished for
our football program.

Carrollton
This night the
Panthers went to play their traditional strongest rivals. Carrollton
played the better game but with the intercepting of two passes and
runback by McNeil of 60 and 80 yards for touchdowns the game was
ours.

FOOTBALL
1941-'42
|
Was
it Zupple who said, "A team can't be licked who
won't be licked"? Well, Jerseyville's football
team made this a true statement. Having lost four
games in a row the team went to Carrollton for their
last game-and WON. But the real story is not in the
score. The larger half of the team had played for
Coach during the four years and knew his ways and his
system of football. The team worked hard every night
after school. Before practice the outfit would take
four or five laps around the track, sometimes even six
or seven. There was a real spirit of teamwork and they
worked hard together. Any team that can make thirteen
points in five minutes has something! Coach always
said that he wouldn't give up; well, the team caught
the spirit- they didn't either.
