Anyone out there happen to have a 1968 Carbon Yearbook handy? Looking for some information about their 1967 football team and hoping that year book has it (67-68 school year). Its a long shot but thought Id post here
What year did Putnam move out of that district?I believe Ronnie Hughes was the running back in that bi-district game. I wasn't at the game but Ronnie was a 5"10" 210 lb. beast of a running back. He ran track and bench pressed 400 lbs. One of those generational talents that no one but his football district knew about(Strawn, Gordon, Putnam, Olden, Moran). Of course, he came along before the state playoffs included sixman football and the increased exposure of this website. He later played football on the offensive line at Tarleton State. Carbon had a tough district to win but did win two consecutive district titles in 1965 and 1966 when winning district was the only way to advance.

Putnam last year to play football was 1966. Don't recall if they had school the following year but Putnam closed the school down similar to what would happen to Olden and Carbon later on.What year did Putnam move out of that district?
I believe Charles ryant was the coach at Carbon at that time.Thanks guys.
-Blue Bird - No I need to know who was the head coach for the 1967 team...but on this note with the Sidney connection I came across an interesting newspaper article...from the Brownwood paper 1-16-1967 that I thought was pretty cool!
The Sidney Parent Teacher Club met in the auditorium and show the football game films of Sidney vs Carbon and Sidney v Novice....so Sidney had those films a some time!
I think I have the Novice copy of that game...I will check and if so try to upload it
I played against Olden in Junior high and maybe my freshman year in high school.Putnam last year to play football was 1966. Don't recall if they had school the following year but Putnam closed the school down similar to what would happen to Olden and Carbon later on.
From your picture I take it you are a Greyhound that went to UT and graduated from there in 75.Putnam last year to play football was 1966. Don't recall if they had school the following year but Putnam closed the school down similar to what would happen to Olden and Carbon later on.
I should probably know you.Putnam last year to play football was 1966. Don't recall if they had school the following year but Putnam closed the school down similar to what would happen to Olden and Carbon later on.
SMH. I'm sitting here and can barely remember the team names from the last 3 weeks, much less the score, much less details from something 50+ years ago.Not 66-67? Carbon had a good team in the football year 66. Had a big fast RB that had an attitude problem. He got tossed midway through the third quarter of their bi-district game with Sidney. If my fading memory is working, Sidney won the game 66-36.
Talk with my cousin that lives in Kokomo, her 3 her brothers were in high school during that time.Anyone out there happen to have a 1968 Carbon Yearbook handy?
