On the team was quarterback Matt Gilliland, an all-league honorable mention, and all three of their top running backs: Doug Campbell, Jordan Vickers and Danny Meyer. Their first game was against the Goodland High School Cowboys, a team the Indians had beat the previous year 26-14.  I have all the confidence in the world that these kids will have a successful season, head coach Dick Heskett predicted.<br>However, the opener was a disaster, as not only did the Indians lose 35-16, two of their starters sustained injuries that required them to be rushed to a hospital by ambulance. With only 28 players available for the remainder of the season, Coach Heskett knew that depth would certainly be an issue in the future of the team. But he stayed positive and saw some good things happen in that first game, especially on defense.  I was proud that our kids never quit and worked hard the entire game,
