Thursday, January 7, 2016 – Throw Back Thursday – WE’RE FROM M-H-S AND NO ONE COULD BE PROUDER AND IF YOU CANNOT HEAR US, WE’LL YELL A LITTLE LOUDER!
Great memories of yellow buses full of teenagers screaming this as the band buses rolled into an opponent’s stadium under the Friday night lights. So today is a throwback to all of the Magnolia ISD football teams and especially to this one – 1952 – I think. District 34 B District Champs!
The photographs come from two of the Rickett girls – Tracy and Suzanne (and their brothers – Ricky and Jon too). See the quarterback – your Uncle Mann? That is Big Don in the back field.
The Awards Program is from my collection. It appears most of the team received some type of recognition. Their faces are pretty easy to see since there were no face masks – even during play. Check out the opponents on the schedule.

If my math is correct, MHS had been playing 11 man football for only about 5 years.
Still Proud. Still Loud. And Still Magnolia.
