The Templeton Eagles lost at home in their first game of the season 39-15 to the Coalinga Horned Toads. Turnovers plagued the Eagles. The team led in most offensive areas including yards and time of possession, but fumbles and an interception cost them the game. Quarterback Noel Brady returned after a year off with an injury, and threw the ball well. Wyatt Ramey put up more than 80 yards running. Johnny Peschong and Lane Miller made some great defensive plays, but the Horned Toads prevailed in front of a big Templeton crowd at Mike Erb Field.
