Holy Grail

[SanchoPanza]

Does anyone happen to have any film from Marathon's 71-75 seasons? I've heard these are kind of a holy grail.

 

[SanchoPanza]

Specifically the 74 championship game

 

[Leman Saunders]

Yes I have several from that time including the 74 state game, both Marathon and Cherokee copies of it in fact.

the 1975 state game is the one no one has or cant find or doesnt want to admit they have for whatever reason

Having been doing this for 10 years+ Id say of the state games the 1979 State game would be the Holy Grail bc it is very likely it was never filmed at all...75 and 79 are the only state games that have never turned up

Was the '79 game Cherokee and Cotten Center?

 

[SanchoPanza]

I am willing to trade a copy of the "11 second touchdown" (Balmorhea/Guthrie) for a copy of the 75 championship film if anybody can help me out.

 

[Leman Saunders]

I have a copy of that 94 Balmorhea v Guthrie game as well...

Now if you can dig up that 1975 State Game from Marathon folks that would be a great trade...or the 1968 Regional game v Blackwell...I would throw in the 73 state game and 72 semi-final Marathon games as well


Yes the 1979 game was Milford v Cotton Center in Iowa Park...

 

[SanchoPanza]

Which state game was in Ozona? Against Cherokee if i remember correctly.

 

[Leman Saunders]

1974 State Game was in Ozona

75 and 76 was in Brownwood

Do you have any Strawn games from the late 70's early 80's?

Leman

Do you have any Strawn games from the late 70's early 80's?

I think only 1981 Gordon v Strawn

Wish I did and wish I had the playoff game vs Milford in 79

 

[Edward Golden]

Me too. Even though it is a game I would like to forget. LOL
