Football Co-Captains 1968  Tom Bewick and Jim Sponem.  The fall of 1968 (our senior year) found our team almost undefeated except for the last game of the season where we lost to Madison East.  It was a great follow up to the previous year where LaFollette was undefeated!!  Jim Krugman, Tom Bewick and Jim Sponem (others???) played varsity football in their junion year and helped with the winning 1967 season.
