Two quick updates: I have fixed a score for the Burlington-Wind River game on Sept. 5, 1969. Wind River won the game 18-6; I had the score reversed, with Burlington winning.
A couple quick notes on this game: It was the first game for the Wind River program. I’m glad that I now can give the Cougars the credit they deserve for winning their first game out.
Also, the loss knocked the Huskies down to an 0-8-1 season in 1969. The Huskies also went winless in 1970 and lost a few to start 1971; their streak of 23 consecutive winless games (0-22-1) has been added to the streaks page.
I also updated Deaver-Frannie’s 1969 record; the Trojans went 3-5, not 4-4.
All other updates have been made on all the relevant pages.

I remember that game, and that season which started the Wind River Cougar era in Wyoming Football. That was a very tough time for all the players as 2 former rival schools ( Pavillion and Morton) consolidated and became Wind River High School. New rivals appeared … like Byron (now Rocky Mountain) and Burlington to keep our attention and feed our need for competition. Thanks for the memories Patrick … I remember lettering that year … I think.
