Major Additions to the Athletic Network: 1912-14 Yearbooks & Over 125 News to Lagniappe Stories1912-14 Yearbook Information Placed on AN website:
The football coach for the 1901-02 team also played fullback. Ashby Woodson was not only the first football coach for SLII, but played on the team. Click on Photo Gallery, Football, 1901.
"Girls of Summer" must have been a popular expression in the 19teens because during the 1912 school year, the Girls’ Indoor Baseball Team was in full swing. To view their team pictures, click on Photo Gallery, Girls Indoor Baseball, 1914 and 1916. (Note the size of the ball in the picture).
The 1913 Girls’ Basketball Team was an awesome scoring machine. Although they played only five games, they scored over 100 points in three of them and beat Morgan City High School by a score of 143-15.
Doucet Hall, Education/Math Building on campus, is named after Maxime Doucet, the Quarterback of the Football team (13,14).
