All me walkers converged at Ironton after starting in their respective towns. East Jordan walkers began at Elm Pointe. Mary Glenna Malpass, the East Jordan chairperson for the walk, said walkers were sponsored with pledges they gathered. The goal this year was to raise $7,000 county-wide.

The Red Devils wasted little time in giving the Homecoming crowd a reason to cheer, Yaro Middaugh romping 61 yards through the Elks for a touchdown on the East Jordan third play from scrimmage. Carl Redmer showed his deft touch, gliding the ball to Steve Wiltfong for the conver• sion and an 8-0 lead. Next time around, Redmer used the pass first, dropping a 35 yard touchdown into the eagerly awaiting hands of Wiltfong for a 14-0 lead in quarter one. Elk Rapids added a long series to their offense, driving down and scoring prior to the halftime to make it a 14-6 game, Adam Burd going in for the Elks from a yard out. The second half was a tradeoff of plays, until the final eight minutes of the fourth quarter, when East Jordan capped an eight-play drive by giving Yaro a handoff that would be destined to arrive THE EMOTION OF the moment is evident on the face of just-crowned 1993 East Jordan 40 yards later in the end zone.
